Re: Johnson & A Little Humor

Hi John,

It was indeed Johnson, not your roomy Jackson as in Jackson & Kagan, or Kagan & Jackson, et al, as seen everywhere.

During my research I had to dig hard to find any information regarding any scandalous behavior and had to go outside of geosciences into astrosciences to ferret it out, but sure enough, I did find one case. But they are not in America. (ok, the rest of you can breathe now.)

As for dress. In the most part, I was really disappointed, but didn't find people dressing like slobs, just in relaxed attire. There was only one occasion where I did see something that was horribly out of place. This persons name will never be revealed by me to anyone, anywhere, but he is a man of some note who represents the government in a highly placed position. He entered a black tie event wearing a very warn cordoroy suit with sneakers and unshaven. An absolute no no.

But for the grand finale' there is no better humor on the net regarding attire than the piece written that resides on the SSA web site, of which the link below is placed for our viewers enjoyment. Frankly, every time I read it I laugh so hard I cry. Its a pip.

I've got a piece on the SSA, but I bet you can't find it.
