And they were just, you know, almost without exception.
They were really adorable, nice, very decent people.
And, yeah, I enjoyed it so much.
Yeah, I was awfully sad when, you know, to finish it, you know, with five or six students, I was feeling kind of guilty to come in and talk to them about a future of a trade where its past was more important than its future.
Oh, it's not so much the ruffle of feathers.
That was a huge part of it.
When I got there, I said, oh, what do you expect of me and what does the job involve and what are the elements?
And they said, oh, well, we do have one thing.
We have a press club.
We meet three times a year at the ferry bank building on the river.

I've heard of them, yeah.
Extraordinary.
We grew up with them.
