Good job and all that rot," a billionaire with billowing moustaches says to Guski. "Priceless insults!"<BR/> "Gee, thanks," Guski responds. "I appreciate it. But could you now take this straitjacket off me?"<BR/> The billionaire, who resembles-- dare we say it?-- a much older version of Rick Moody (Hiram II himself in the flesh?), waves over one of his distinguished friends.<BR/> "Here's the man, old boy," the billionaire says. "Gave ol' King back some of his own medicine. Enormous fun. Have to put those upstart rascals in their place!"<BR/> Bryan is sweating but tries to be polite. "Yes, but could you now take this straitjacket off me?"<BR/> "Delightful. Delightful!" the second rich guy says to Bryan; Morgan-something-or-other from an important publishing company. "Great job. You should be rewarded in some way. Could I bring you a cocktail? Some hors d'oeuvres?"<BR/> Guski isn't listening; his face enraged, he's shouting, "CAN YOU NOW TAKE THIS STRAITJACKET OFF ME!!!"<BR/>******************<BR/>(Sorry, my last post on this topic. No doubt there ARE valid criticisms of the ULA to be made. The test of our organization is how well and quickly we deal with our flaws in order to gain in speed.)King Wenclashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13709139159194279478noreply@blogger.com
