Good morning. We are hearing Fred the Accountant telling of is nightmare trip to Washington.
- He had dinner and then what?
After dinner I decided to take a walk.
- After he returned to the hotel, what did he do?
When I returned to the hotel it struck me a highball would be fine before going to bed, so I stepped into the bar and had one.
(Note: That’s THREE!!!)
- He remembered what after the third drink?
I remember having several more that night and plenty next morning.
- He then had a shadowy recollection of what?
I have a shadowy recollection of being in an airplane bound for New York
- Who did he hook up with at the landing field?
and of finding a friendly taxicab driver at the landing field instead of my wife.
Probably Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn, new right off Jamaica
Bay. It was s New York City's first municipal airport and at the time of this
event was the only landing “field” in NYC. Today the field is used as a
heliport by the New York Police
Department. The runways and terminal building are all still there today.
- What did they do and for how long?
The driver escorted me about for several days.
TOMORROW
- What did he remember of all this?
- Where did he wind up and with what?
- As soon as his mind cleared, what did he do?
- Had he resisted the first drink?
- Was he conscious of the fact he had taken a drink?
Peace & Love,
