John and I met at a party sixty years ago. He’d had a lot to

drink when I was introduced to him by a mutual friend. In

fact, he had just poured a glass of beer straight down his

throat right in front of me as if to say , Sweetheart, this is

how real men drink. I said I was worried about him, but he

insisted he was ne.

For a small guy he sure knew how to hold his liquor. It

then turned out that it was a party trick of some sort that

he was famous for. He especially enjoyed doing it in front

of people who had neer seen him do it. It certainly made

an impression on me. Still, I kept an eye on him for the

rest of the night, just in case .

!hen we bumped into each other a little later, he called

me "funny face.# He just made that up on the spot. He later

admitted that he forgot my name so he had to come up

with something. He#s called me "funny face# ever since,

come to think of it . I didn$t mind then and I don't now. s

far as nicknames go , you could do a lot worse . %nd I do

hae a funny face, so he$s got that right.

nyway , we both ended up having a really good time at

the party and we stayed so late that we missed the last bus

and had to walk e miles in the rain. !ot only did we get

to know each other on the way home, by the time we got

there we had planned our honeymoon and agreed on what

we were going to name our three kids.
