I said, “Well, the boat was about to sail, but I was good and mad too.”

“Oh well,” he said, “you have to do something to salve Bob over.”

“Well,” I said, “do I have to do something to salve Baruch over too, or do you really want Marion Dickerman to go? What does Marion Dickerman know about this?”

“She doesn't know a damn thing,” he said. “You don't dislike Marion, do you?”

I said, “No, I like Marion all right, but this doesn't seem to me to be her dish of tea. This isn't her style.
