I like this option too.

Somewhere in this thread I read Whitney and I was reminded that a 
childhood friend of mine had devoted himself to being a gigilo and was 
living in an obscure shed of a house in the woods near Ithaca with 
Cornelia Vanderbilt Whitney. This is more than 30 years ago. She was a 
quiet girl. I'm curious to know what became of her. I met her twice and 
don't remember much more than that she liked stamp collecting, Billy 
Jorgenson at the time at least, and despised her 'jet set' mother.

I'm also curious what became of my friend Billy. He moved to German last 
I knew. At the time he was hanging with Cornelia he was a hotshot Ithaca 
advertising man on the rise. His mother, whom I built dry laid stone 
walls in Brooktondale for, was a scientific illustrator with many 
clients at Cornell. I have lost touch with them and should think to look 
up Jane.
