Shrub cousin update

[fflo]

Okay, Holly talked to Roc. His mother is the daughter of the sister of Barbara Bush; George the I is his great uncle. I think that means he's a second cousin to the current "leader"---is that right, pijeanf?

Sure enough, all he had to apologize for was trying to get laid (and being a little sulky about it) on a weekend away---he'd flown our girl to Fishers Island, an old family home I think it was, and then couldn't get into her britches. It seems lately he's been thinking about people in his past, as he's dumped an old friend who takes a mentorly/teacherly 'tude toward him, when R. really just wants a friend.

I don't get it, really, but H. had a good time catching up with him. He's kind of a knock-around type, with (dwindling) family money but no right-wing politics. In fact the presidential family does not get along at all with his mother, and they weren't even invited to the inauguration. So maybe he's not such a bad bloke after all.

I guess that means our influence is way too limited to pull off your earlier request, hambokins!

sounds like you have just the right amount of influence. a family member who isn't much liked, and who also probably has important addresses and influence contra-his second cousin.

Well you have a point there! I'll see what we can cook up.

Frankly, getting the target (and his cronies) the heck out of power is the main is the main trouble i'd like to stir up.

the heck out of power is the main is the main trouble

the double use of "is the main" made me think you might have been turning into eminem.

Actually, Roc would be Shrub's 1st cousin, once removed, and vice versa.

Glad to hear there were no major amends to be made, Holly had a good chat w/the dude, and he doesn't seem like a bad bloke. All good. : )
