Did I tell you about the snow?
No, but that's where Lyndon Johnson met Brezhnev, you know, down in Glassboro.
Oh that's right. Well, this was in a hugh stable. The reception was in a huge stable for 100 horses or something like that, and there was a taproom, and there was a big reception there -- huge -- and then there was a big dinner in a huge house, a big dinner dance, and I sat next to the president of General Electric, Mr. Jones. He was in despair because he lives out in Conn, and it was a good three hours away, and the dinner was still going at a quarter of 12.
(laughing): How did you get back?
I had my car, and I was never so happy to get home in my life. But it was a very splendid party.
In the meantime poor Senator Williams has gotten involved in ABSCAM, which I hate, because he is such a good Senator.
That involvement came out later.
Oh yes, it was all later. I don't know how to help him out of that.
