I enjoyed it a lot. I've just "met" Libby through our common publicist, Rebecca Crowley, and this interplay here gave me a chance to get to know her even more. Thank you both.<br />(PS I must say, Libby, I had an inkling you were a Cubs fan but, nonetheless, you've won me over.)Pascal Marcohttp://www.pascalmarco.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3566219501850777383.post-10960268061777689792011-12-01T08:02:24.497-05:002011-12-01T08:02:24.497-05:00Libby -Great to read your thoughts/words as always...Libby -Great to read your thoughts/words as always.Christineklinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12222756129930225646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3566219501850777383.post-50504049566593035332011-11-30T20:47:47.629-05:002011-11-30T20:47:47.629-05:00Nice to learn more about you, Libby.Nice to learn more about you, Libby.Sheila Daltonhttp://www.sheila-anne-dalton.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3566219501850777383.post-46090931217290320992011-11-30T17:11:34.071-05:002011-11-30T17:11:34.071-05:00Thanks, everyone who's commented.

And I wish I could claim credit for sayint it, but I think Dorothy Parker said it first. Now THAT's someone I would have liked to have a drink with.
