Dinner With Wally And Linda



I had dinner with my friends Wally and Linda, seen in the above photograph, in the backyard of their home yesterday evening.  Wally is the former Operations Manager of the University of Denver Bookstore, where I worked as the Finance Manager for almost 30 years before the store was outsourced to Follett Higher Education Group (aka The Evil Empire), and Linda recently retired from the Denver School of the Arts. Both are doing well and social distancing during these times of pandemic. Wally is an accomplished woodworker, which by necessity requires social distancing, and spends a lot of time in his workshop, which Linda frequently points out used to be their garage. Linda spends a lot of time on Zoom, connecting with all her friends.  Whenever Wally passes her when she is on Zoom, he says it looks just like Hollywood Squares, and always asks which one is Phyllis Diller.  For that matter, whatever happened to Orson Bean?
