In His Words
Here's a follow-up to my posting (from Forbes) on Dec. 1.

"In his own words," RB is never subtle.

Found this article about "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" and how after three decades, it still affects RB--a philosophical and religious experience. He says "It fits together pieces of the universe."

Yup, same effect on me. I now know where mashed potatoes fits into the grande scheme of things. I only wish I knew where I fit in.

Charles Berlitz's book THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE does a good job fitting some of the same things together.

The mashed potatoes was one of the highlights of the movie.

I've not read Berlitz's book but I've heard it discussed. Maybe I should read it. The BT has always been a mystery worth pondering.

Good one, Lake! In any forum, RB triumphs.

Here some better phrased "In 'Their' Words":

fjp,

This is the reason I visit this site. Every once in a while, something inspiring is posted about RB. Your link is fabulous. Thanks for that.

I've already listened to three different interviews and will continue to listen to more over the next few weeks.

Thanks again.
