What a fricken awesome letter. I'll bet Marilyn got as much of a kick out of it as I did.

ReplyDeleteHis Travels With Charlie is humorous and tongue-in-cheek and I suppose this is that same kind of tomfoolery.

DeleteInteresting that folksie John's secretary signed the letter of request.
ReplyDeleteAnon, there was a comment left by someone who was also his secretary at a different time. She said this was exactly how he would handle a letter such as this.

DeleteI remember, as a very young boy in the 1950's, my father had a really cool bar in our family room. On a portion of the wall behind the bar there was a framed color photo of Marylin Monroe in a Georgia Tech sweater. Since my dad had graduated from Tech, the photo meant a lot to me.
ReplyDeleteJohn, you can't go wrong with family tradition and Marilyn.
