Until that day, I try to show my appreciation in little ways: replenish the coffee supply, carry the recycling to the alley, replace the toilet paper... Likely, office administrator Sallie Harrison was expecting nothing when she asked if I would be "entertainment" for her quarterly meeting of local volunteer coordinators (PRAVA - I think it is an acronym). That of course is where she went wrong. She should have learned by now, but one must never give Ned the opportunity to stand up in front of a group of people unless one really wants Ned to stand up in front of a group of people.

A week later, I show up in the middle of the meeting as "Fez", the Argenswaillen party-starter. (Sallie is the one in the chef hat.)
