Since the last blog post there has been the usual hardships and laughs. My favorite reading from this quarter was the short story called "Minor embarrassment." Secretary Thurber was on guard when president Cleveland had gone on a fishing trip but wanted to keep it disclosed and not have the media all over it. Unfortunately that same weekend a famous person died who was somewhat close to Mr. Cleveland. Obviously the press wanted their fair share of the presidents word, but the president was fishing! Thurber stepped in and almost hid Clevelands whereabouts perfectly. He gave the presidents "word" to the press and almost saved the presidents ass. The next day press found out that the president was coming back from Virginia on fishing trip.
I've been in this situation plenty of times, trying to cover their tracks or for their own sake. In this story I relate to Thurber the most. I plan to comment on Gracies blog as well as Anils. Till next time
