Thanks Mike.  Have you read CT Yankee?  Most of the book is excellent, but again Twain gives us another story with another "people in disguise get into trouble" motif.  He wore that one out after three or four other novels.

I was flattered when Sal Johnson and another GCAer wrote me and said they were fans of the book and liked the piece.  I don't know why you think it's fawning as I say at one point that Tom's aphorisms are dorky sometimes.

Look, was there anything specific I said in there that you disagree with?  It was a tough piece to write; Tom is complex.

Jay,

 I went to Cornell, married a Cornell girl from Connecticut and I am typing this in Connecticut. Screw Doakey, where is my love? 

[Jay Flemma]

Sweeney, I love ya.  Doak too...but I TURNED DOWN Cornell to go to Trinity instead!

Go fight win Trin!

This feels like some college ring knocking festival

[Jay Flemma]

Bryon, you're right..sorry to be LCD...but I really do love my school.  Where's Sean Berry when I need him?

Any other Bantams out there?  Roll Call for NESCAC schools!

[Brad Tufts]

You chose Trinity over Cornell....then watched Middlebury and Williams crap on your heart..... 

Yeah post #1000...mark it dude.

Thanks so much for giving us a closure look at Tom Doak

Jay called me up the other day gushing over the fact that he had just found the absolute worst architeture in the entire world but I have no intention at all of telling anyone where it is---absolutely no intention----none!

It's funny - as much as we all write with our own personal biases, we also read with them just as much.

The dork alarm ringing reminded me of a thread I've been meaning to start. Thanks, Jay.

I had to force myself to read past 'paradigm'.   
If Jay gets paid by the word, he must get double for using adjectives. 


p.s. Good article

[Martin Del Vecchio]

Yeah post #1000...mark it dude.

 ;DWhat are you dorkin' about?   We won a ridiculous record number of football games in a row, haven't lost in squash in two centuries , have the best History Depatrment on the eastern seaboard, and have the best study abroad program on Planet Earth.

Calling Sean Berry!  Up and Fight, Up and Fight, Tri-ni-teeeee!

Evidently the English Department is not as strong as the vaunted History Department.
