Hey, wait! You were right the first time; they’re volunteers, in fact, they’re very happy volunteers!
You’ve been invited several times to go on the tour so that you could experience it personally, but you always refuse to sign the Release of Liability and Non-Disclosure Agreement forms. Grrrrrrr.

Attorney schmattorney! What’s a few dozen initials on each of the clauses and two measly signatures on the final page of each form? The friendship you and I share alone should suffice as your assurance that everything is on the up and up. I wouldn’t even be so insistent on the forms were it not for what I’ve learned via my entanglements with Minneapolis Civil Courts, but that’s a different story.

Gee, that’s a great idea! In fact, if the contractors can get the job done quickly, Savvy Ansley plans to take the personal tour soon, she just has some legal documents to sign first. Can you get me a discount on the deal? Er, um, I meant to ask can get “MY FRIEND” a discount on the deal? I personally have nothing to do with this. (Cough, cough.)

Doctor’s notes: Although otherwise apparently quite healthy, and presenting no alcohol nor drugs in his system, this patient has broken out with hives over 90% of his body, he’s convulsing violently, his heart rate is off the charts, and his eye/ear/nose/and/throat passages are horribly swollen and blocked in an alarming fashion, but we’ve found absolutely no medical nor toxicological reason for these symptoms. He doesn’t communicate very well, seems to be hallucinating, he repeatedly mumbles something along the lines of, “Dinged Halsey” or “That lousy” or “Slight is the one behind this”. A mental health specialist has been summoned to explore any psychological stimuli for the patient’s condition . . .
