Confidential to Phillip A. Evans Jr., vice president and chief communications officer for Turner Enterprises:
Now might be a good time to visit a certain house in Tallahassee. Once you’re there, rip the phone cord from the wall and disconnect the modem. You may be interrupted here by a man who is eager to continue “setting the record straight.” In a gentle, firm voice say to him, “Bob, why don’t you just sit still for a bit.”
Then make the man a nice big plate of scrambled eggs, some toast and a little Mandarin tea. For dessert, pour him out some whiskey. Let him choose what the two of you watch on TV.
