[Dialogue] Coming in from the cold

[W. J.]

Geez, guys, I'll never forget that incredible Leah Early giving that report. BUT I can't remember ANYTHING about even owning a goldfish! Hope it died a happy death, though. 'Cause it's definitely NOT around today!
   
  Isn't it great to be an old geezer with a very funky, conveniently spotty memory?
   
  Anne, are you SURE it was I who lent you the goldfish? Or was this just another of the many Apocryphal Marshall Stories that never happened?

  Don't get me started, or I'll threaten to tell stories about Anne and Priscilla on the first Global Odyssey. The best story is that when we finally got to Rome, I got a telegram from JWM: "SHUT UP IN COLLEGIUM." Well, I guess I never really took that to heart!

  Anne,  What a wonderful story. I can still see that room...the regal Leah Early giving her report and the awe everyone experienced wth the candlelight, shells and fish.  No one else knew you were holding your breath for Marshall's fish to maintain life throughout the evening. I assume it lived...as did we all.

  It has been such an incredible experience to reconnect with you all. I have poured over the exchanges on Secondary Ethics and have been intrigued with the challenging and unique insights. I particularly enjoyed David Rebstock’s appraisal of Harry Truman’s excruciating position in World War 11 and Marshall's Music Man!

Hearing from Marshall brought back one of my (now funny) memories. My favorite assignments always had to do with celebrations and decor. One weekend I was assigned to transform the room for the Guardian’s final dinner...the major focus at that time was Marjuro and so I thought “candlelight, shells and fish” (definitely within budget). I collected tall, slender, glass cylinders and borrowed goldfish from every available source.

Marshall loaned me the biggest and cautioned me that he wanted it back NOT dead but alive.

I was so fearful and intimidated that I missed a good part of Leah Early’s fabulous report because before the meal  was over Marshall’s fish was at the top of the cylinder gulping for air.....So much for decor....

I would so love to be assigned to plan the final banquet for Mr. Rove and Mr. Gonzales...what a celebration that could be!
