Talked to the lad for a bit tonight on the telephone. He is having entirely too damn much fun. The thought of this man, unsupervised, in the French Quarter is truly frightening. Perhaps I had better, purely in the interest of taking care of a Mudcatter loose in a strange (take that anyway you want) country, jump in a jet and go down and supervise the dear chap........................Nah! One thing is for sure, either Skipjack or New Orleans will never recover. I am not going to bet on which one it is likely to be.

Have fun, Skipjack. See you next time.
