voyager Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Years ago a friend and I worked our way through the then new Marcella Hazan cookbook. After a few months, she said she didn't want to play anymore because her husband, increasingly disappointed with restaurant dinners was balking at going out. This morning I presented Chuck with a handful of takeout options which he glanced at and dismissed, saying, "You remember what your friend Diane told you...." Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Josh Karpf Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Scanning ancient papers, I just found this. I worked for the publisher of Dances with Wolves when the movie came out, and my department's work included making the movie tie-in edition. I was an assistant editor with a former phone closet of an office, and wasn't closely connected to that book. But an editorial assistant who was involved with it, a very nice guy but naive, had a cube right outside my door. So I got to hear all about it. I had a friend send my letter from another city, for an authentic postmark. The assistant fell for it hook, line, and sinker, falling to his knees while reading. He worried out loud for so long about how he was going to write a kind rejection letter that I told him myself, at the end of the day, that it had been me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
prasantrin Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 I am not a fan of practical jokes, but that's hilarious! Maybe you can get Daniel to have some stuffed toads with Kevin Costner's face made. And send one to your former colleague. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
