                                       - 35 -                                         
               Q    Now, during the time period that is the                           
                    subject of this case, 1989 through 1991, you                      
                    had an account with Dean Witter, a liquid                         
                    asset fund, didn't you?                                           
               A    Yes.                                                              
               Q    And you made some deposits to that account                        
                    over the course of those three years?                             
               A    Yes.                                                              
               Q    Can you estimate for me what the amount of                        
                    those deposits were?                                              
               A    I couldn't possibly.                                              
               Q    Would you say it is closer to $100, $1,000,                       
                    $10,000, $100,000?                                                
               A    I made those deposits.  I believe I told Mike                     
                    [Mr. McAllister] I was doing it on a monthly                      
                    basis.  This is the money that was earmarked                      
                    to repay Mike.  The amount, I have no idea.                       
               Q    You have no idea how much you put into this                       
                    liquid assets account?                                            
               A    I have no idea.                                                   
          Mr. McGirl's auto logs, for the reasons detailed above, show his            
          lack of credibility.  Both Mr. and Mrs. McGirl testified that the           
          cash register broke in the first year of the Yogurt Station's               
          operation and that they never had it repaired.  The cash register           
          supposedly was unreliable because it would randomly repeat                  
          entries.  However, when Mr. McGirl was being investigated by Mr.            
          Erickson, a criminal investigator for the MDR, seven former                 
          Yogurt Station employees provided affidavits that stated that the           
          cash register worked properly, and that it did not repeat                   
          entries.  After the MDR audit was underway, Mr. McGirl told Mr.
