Oh, Cecil. Where are you? Beckdawrek summons you

Now wait a minute.
Here you are, begging Cecil for an audience, and yet professing your love for Andy Griffith?

This reminds me of the time back in 1992 when Cecil and I were attending the Barcelona games. It was the night after Shannon Miller won the bronze medal on the balance beam. We were eating dinner late in a small seafood place in the Gothic Quarter, when Cecil, who had the audacity to be carrying around one of those early brick phones, gets a call. It was Betsey Wright, close aide to Bill Clinton. She said that Bill, who had just accepted the Democratic nomination a week or so before, was wanting to decompress before making the final kick towards the election, and was inviting Cecil to meet up with him and a few other people at Greg Norman’s place in Florida. Cecil, politely declined and we drank grappa for the next several hours.

@omar_little, give your old buddy a call. Tell him this Arky girl wants him to come home.

Carni*- I have a big heart. Lots of loves to give!!

This thread is about @Cecil_Adams.

I just where Ol’@Cecil_Adams is tonight?
I wonder if he’s thinking about the Dope? Or maybe in conference with world leaders about the Pandemic.

Ah, he’s probably wasted on some back road drinkin’ moonshine.
Hey, I need to take a ride to the end of my road.

BBL.

I forgot the ‘wonder’

Just like me to screw up in this way.
Well, crap. Now I’m depressed.

I need a cheerful greeting …ah, NM.
