The boss comes to lunch

Today, the renowed financier, actor, and airplane pilot, Ralph Lim, visited the home of accidental academic, Jill Woodilla, and her leading man, Jack. All played their roles superbly -- if critics had been present they would not have noticed any flaws in the performances.

First, the set was prepared, ready for scenes inside and out. A third location, (Wind 'n Go) was ready for the second act.


The main drama occurred outside, with the the actors wearing their summer costumes of polo shirts and kaki sorts, and using lobsters as props. The script covered a range of topics, from common roots in engineering and using a Nordic Track for exercise, to trading names of conference locations and the highlights of each place. No business was conducted, but positions were staked out for subsequent negotiations.


The dialogue proceeded at a good pace, and, as the actors concluded with their final lines of thanks and invitation to come again to go sailing, the audience was left wondering what the plot had been, despite the fact that they had enjoyed the show.
