1. I spent Wednesday visiting John Charles Bradbury and his students at Sewanee. I had a fabulous time and even got to see the Adam Smith stained glass window in Sewanee's chapel. Thanks for your hospitality, JC.

2. My turn on the name game. There are Frank Stephensons who:

--designed the Mini (and moved on to Ferrari/Maserati and now Fiat)

--is a print technician at Oaklands College UK

--is a senior technical manager at Applied Biosystems

--is editor of FSU's Research in Review

--is the author of the novel "An Unlikely Journey"

--is director of the Stevenson School's annual fund (Not only does a Stephenson direct the Stevenson School's annual fund, it also has a (Ron) Provost as its dean of students.)

--is a Joel Chandler Harris scholar.

--was [thanks Larry] a cricket player in India

--is my dad and was a guest on Michael Feldman's NPR program to discuss his "Great American Chitlin Cookbook" (BTW, I don't eat chitlins and fortunately they were hardly ever served when I was a child.)
