Hi Wendy,

Yes, this Sagaponack issue is likely to be the Dreyfuss Affair of our time, pitting brother against brother, etc. No, actually I'm totally unaware of this issue. Perhaps you can enlighten me when you "initiate" tomorrow's correspondence.

Meanwhile, I'm surprised at your delicacy, but I guess you can take the girl out of the Yeshiva, but...etc. Well, I don't care. I'm going to say it.

PUTZ-HEAD

There, I've said it. What a feeling.

See ya tomorrow.

xxxxxooooo,

Stephen
