Sam,

Sorry to hear about this, though I thought it a possibility once Randi got mistreated openly and publicly. Your AAR work has been resplendent and inspired (though I am sorry things didn't work out with Janeane). You have definitely put in the work and paid your dues.

You are an up and coming talent -- don't let the AAR debacle convince you of anything differently. Admittedly, I followed your Majority Report days a lot more closely but I tuned in on Sunday when I could and always enjoyed your filling in for Randi and others. But you are picking up the skills for the future. I look forward to you finding a nice situation where you are allowed to thrive -- and I'll be there. Don't be a stranger! :^)

I know you probably didn't like the character, but loved the movie NEXT STOP WONDERLAND and I always think of you fondly being one of those goofy guys (spoken by an ex-goofy guy!) who repeated:

"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
