My friend Adair has all the tact and manners of a Prussian field commander. "You go with me to the Summit today. I still need a couple more things for my wife. You can help. I'll buy you lunch at Sweet Bones Alabama. Let's go." When I said "no" because I have to work, unlike Adair, who does "finance," as he calls it (that's all I know about what he does) he exploded with a string of profanities and hung up on me. So what. Adair has his undergrad degree from UMass-Amherst and an MBA from Brown. I have a history degree from a land-grant university and so I am just as good as he is. Besides, when it's time to buy Christmas for your bride, I say it's every man for himself. Don't look to me for help.
