How Sweet It Is...
The following is as reported by Captain Ed...un-edited, and in his own words:
O/A 1200 Ed arrived table side, Captains Grill to find 8 MMMM's in utter
chaos, waitress Diane dishelved due to Ed's not arriving at the usual
1100, as well as the profound decision to remove an extra chair from
outboard side of table. Ed's presence as usual brought calm & serenity as
well as soothing Diane. Earl seemed more affected as he cannot think
right when Ed is not on the scene. The faces of Bill V. Bill Q. Gene Sp,
Gene Si, Carl, Gary, Earl,Dick, looked upon Ed with with awe & reverence,
whereupon the session got underway. Carl, gripping his heave around with
loving care, knowing his friend of yore, Ed will take care of him as he
has for many years, started in about the dammn PC, saying his system was
the best, the others still in the dark ages. Hell, Gene didnn't know
about attachments, looking at Ed with askance. Ed adroitly turned it to
Carl to continue trying to educate all in the good & bad. Earl chimed in
with rec DDL from Stan W. of course no one knew what It meant, although
Gene feebly gave it a try. Bill V. queried as to addressing multiples,
with Carl explaining, both Genes & Earl trying to understand. Ed, of
course an expert held his tongue so as not to show off. Gary letting all
know about his player piano, which doesnt work, & 250 rolls. Ed offered
to buy for a few dollars to get off his hands, to no avail. Gary also
gave all a blow by blow description of the cruise he & wife Mary went on,
Mary by the way a fine lass, putting up with Gary. BillV & Dick getting
into it over senior cititzenery, no doubt all knows who was the senior.
