"At
the risk of being redundant, repetitive or even ridiculous, I must
respond to your recent report by reciting that nearly nothing could have
given me more reason to rejoice, I reckon, than to read that you
reawakened, reactivated, recharged and really resurrected our reposing
reunion committee, thereby reassuring the rest of us another
reversionary, reacquainting, refreshing, rejuvenating, rollicking romp
regressing and recalling, revisiting, reviving, restoring and
replenishing the rapidly receding remaining remnants of our
recollections of a kinder, gentler time, to recklessly release and
relinquish reality, and all reservations and restraints, for one night,
to rally rigorously in retrospect, renew relationships, and to relish
ravenously in rapturous revelry — rocking, rolling and reminiscing.
"After
enduring the third successive decadent decade following our departure
from adolescence, it will indeed be a delight, once again, to
drastically diminish the distance between us, and momentarily drop, make
dormant, dispose of, discard, distract ourselves
and deviate
from the
deliberate diligence of our daily lives’ disciplined directions, to dally
and detach ourselves from our individual destinies, drift back from
the day-to-day difficulties, distresses and deep desperations of middle
age domain to daydream together deliciously, dwell upon and discuss the
days of our daring, defiant and debonair youth — and dance,
dance, dance."
