    We should all have companions this close. Even temporarily. I am half a recluse, but wish I had a group like this to get me out of my shell.

    I recently read "Harpo Speaks", his autobiography.  I highly recommend it.  It gives a great and intimate sense of this crowd with Alexander Woolcoot in many chapters.  They really had fun both at and away from the Round Table.

    "At Wits End " is another good book about the table.
