Are you still trying to get your Eagle Scout Badge? I thought 18 was the cut-off... How did your butt get sore laying bricks--do you have a novel way of picking them up? -----Original Message----- From: Ken Follett [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Thursday, October 29, 1998 5:23 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: NEWS ALLERT/Butt Cracks In a message dated 10/29/98 3:46:32 PM Eastern Standard Time, [log in to unmask] writes: > "I was there when Ken got mooned by the National Trust..." Heidi, Many thanks. I missed the subliminal message in PRESERVATION. Digression: my wife and son were a bit flustered last Sunday morning when Farakan was yakking on the tube and I walked into the room, stood before the TV and mooned the talking head in protest and excercise of my old white man's rights. It helped that I spent Saturday laying brick for an Eagle scout project and was mighty sore in the rear. I now see that my feeble attempt at protest was actually setting myself up for a karma blow from the National Trust. Oh well... onward. As to their picture... I think I might be able to trace it to my brother. ][<en
