One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

survived Vietnam, survived being a Republican delegate, survived drinking from the black fountain when I was a 7 year old in Kress's in Roanoke, VA, survived the pentacostal holiness of my grandmother's church, survived the anti-Vietnam war marches, and got a great consulting reference: "I think God sent you to me", and got a great military reference; "Basil is a good man to have on your side" ; My next step is to move to Virginia and run for Congress
