Dear Harrison,
Get your martini glass ready because from afar, we will click our glasses
from Manila to Washington, straight up, hold the vegetables with a twist of
QiQoChat virtual thrown in.

I'll be in Manila with other wonderful folks and you will assuredly be
there in spirit (and spirits) with us.

Suzanne xoxo
