this year . I know we have boxes full of notes from convention
stashed away in the Greater Richmond Convention Center- which
I last read in Fargo , by the way- and I know we ’ ve been together
National Convention Site
since gladii and fasces were cool and I wore Varsity Latin shirts ,
Ancient Item x2
Piece of Clothing VJCL ' ers Wear but I just wanted to make sure you know , 61 years on , how much
odi et amo . 61 years of coughing , performing in That ’ s

years of trodding on the sod , not getting sent home at our
