Bliatt ’97: Welcome, everyone. We’re all so glad you could make it to today’s conference. I see that my rainmaking machine didn’t deter any of my townie fans in the back. Yes, hey to you, too, Frank. Please put your shirt back on.
And so, still dreaming of his beautiful bearded Prince and savior, he stood by the edge of a cliff, staring out at the endless sea, his heart beating wildly as the waves crashed upon the sandy shore.
