Apr 1999

A letter from Thomas Guterbock raises an important issue. Guterbock, writing from his Charlottesville, Virginia, home, reported that he became a father again on September 16, 1998, when his wife Bernice gave birth to daughter Alexandra. He continued: “And just three weeks later I became a grandfather when my eldest daughter, Sara, brought Maia Guterbock into the world.” Now, aside from the…

Mar 1999

It has always been clear to me that one day my inability to out-drink Will Bogaty would cost me. Alas, at our Harvard weekend in New York last fall, that shortcoming came home to roost, as it were, and here I am, your new corresponding secretary. That annual mini-reunion, enhanced by the Bulldogs’ avenging the tragic “loss” of three decades earlier, included classmates Ralph Sando, Larry Franks, Steve Dixon…

Nov 1998

Well, here we are in another dizzying round of class notes. By the time you see this, it will be getting reasonably close to the Harvard game, and with luck Lang Wheeler will have issued instructions to one and all on how to enjoy his fiesta for class members at his Cambridge abode. Before we get to the mail, a little something for all you “90s-kind-of guys”: several classmates have let me know about a cute e-mail…

You should have received a letter from him outlining upcoming social events, including a trip in the California wine country (October 23-25), a fiesta at the Yale-Harvard game courtesy of Lang Wheeler…

It’s a long, and actually fairly prosaic story, involving family pressures (dealing with young kids, dying old folks), work pressures (corporate life isn’t the same since they did away with the executive dining room), and travel (work and pleasure). But you probably don’t care much, and here we are back. I have had offers of…
