I just picked Tony C up at the airport and took him for a seared salmon salad before his speaking engagement at Lake Harriet UMC tonight. I enjoy kidnapping mentors like Tony for an hour here and there when they happen to come to the Twin Cities to speak. For the price of a dinner I usually get some really good advice.
Tonight Tony asked how things have been going since my heart incident. I quoted Gandhi on the events of the last three years: "First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win."
He corrected me with a slightly different version:
"First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then they appoint you head of an institution of the church... and you are never heard from again."
