vetting Bill is the holdup.

Why don’t they just read the Starr report? It may be more than 7 pages long, but at least it’s not accurate despite being entertaining.

I know well what you mean.

Why, even me own patience, Twain, (hard as this may be to admit) is less resilient of late, so I’ve taken the attitude of …hmm we’ll just have to wait.

There is little evidence to suggest much ’success’ in that endeavor …

Yet, spring hopes eternal, Twain …

Good to ’see’ you Twain, and all the rest of you fomenting changerists.
