A lighthearted invitation to enjoy a Happy Hour at Spillian in October 2018 turned into one of the most lighthearted, delightful evenings we've had in many years. Geno and JJ had come up to spend some precious time time with Leigh and Mark, and Dennis and I had the pleasure of enjoying wine, cheese, and various other refreshments in an intimate gathering. I was subjected to Geno's distinctive modes of Socratic questioning, revealing his insatiable curiosity and twinkling wit. Although this guestbook entry mode does not allow me to share the picture that I took of the lovely gift Geno bestowed on me, I treasure the ONE PRECIOUS GRAPE he gave me! Yes, it looks simply like one lonely grape, but it symbolizes the marvelous fullness of our one and only meeting. That grape is a microcosm of the immensity of our human experience, savored over wine, cheese, philosophy, and laughter. And a week later we were honored to be admitted to the ASTWSNGU, JJ's and Geno's recognition that we are suitably weird enough to be appreciated by this remarkable family. Thanks to Leigh and family for this opportunity to share our remembrances of our, however brief, unforgettable experience. We love you all.
