Here we are on the morning of September 2. Carl appeared last night at a book signing at Borders in Orlando. Judy said earlier in this thread that there was a small possibility that she might be able to rearrange her calender so that she could stalk.....er, I mean see Carl there. (Anybody who has read this thread knows how Judy and I react to Carl.)

My plan was to attend vicariously from a distance. (Cincinnati) Carl never comes to Cincinnati. (sigh) Well.....I guess he could show up in Cincinnati.....Yeah, right......maybe in 20 years.

Mark Twain supposedly said, "If the world is coming to an end, I want to be in Cincinnati because Cincinnati is always 20 years behind the times."

And besides, in 20 years, there probably will be no such thing as a book signing. We will have to have book chips implanted into our brains. (I hope we get to pick which books.) There might even be a Chip of the Month Club. So Carl will have no reason to come to Cincinnati, not even in 20 years. (I digress.) But.........

Why couldn't Carl, at least, have waited for my return to Florida? So near and yet so far.

Now, here I am, still in Cincinnati, the morning after, at my computer, eating Cheerios with walnuts on them, drinking coffee, and wondering if Judy got there, to Orlando last night. Did Judy get to see Carl in person? Do I need to arrange for bail?
