[Vision2020] One bad apple evidently spoils the whole bunch?

[keely emerinemix]

Joan,

Is that Auntie Establishment or Antie Bellum, given your current Southern belle status?  

No matter.  You'll always be the Aphrodite of Erudite, and that should more than make up for your having been dropped as the official Botox spokesmodel after your catty, mean-spirited cheerleader comments (is there any other kind?).  Hope you're enjoying the reunion, but you'd better come home quick and rescue Carl from his morass of mea culpas.

And, Carl -- Donny always liked me better.

  My dear Keely,

  I can only say in response that my seventies childhood was haunted by the 
  following:

  Go ahead and hate your neighbor
  Go ahead and cheat a friend
  Do it in the name of heaven
  You can justify it in the end.

  There won't be any trumpets blowing
  Come the judgement day
  But on the bloody morning after-er-er
  One tin soldier rides away.

  Well, my childhood was haunted by that and the "Poseidon Adventure."  At my 
  high school reunion this past weekend, the ceilings were festooned with huge 
  chandeliers, and I could only look up and wonder if the building were 
  flipped by a tidal wave, would they hold Shelley Winter's body weight?

  Yours in Raleigh, NC,
  Joan Opyr/Auntie Establishment

  PS: All Southern ex-cheerleaders use Botox.  It's a fact.  I talked to one 
  on Saturday night whose face was completely immobile from the cheekbones up. 
    It was fascinating to watch -- kind of like conversing with Madame while 
  Waylon Flowers is off somewhere in another room.
