Who says that you can't have a bit of fun with your revenge?

Andy asked me to deliver the eulogy at his funeral "if things didn't work out."
I told him, literally, to go fuck himself for thinking like that. I said the words: "Go fuck yourself." I scolded him for being so down, so defeatist.
But I promised.
I don't know what his people want. I will obviously bend to their wishes one way or the other.
But someone is going to pay for making me keep that promise.
I swear to God.

be calculating,
be smart,
be ruthless.
Get these bastards. In ways that will really hurt them for years and years to come.
Don't expect satisfaction from doing of the deed, for it will not come, nor expect peace. But sometimes we must do these things nonetheless.

"Leave no enemy behind..."
but I felt it appropriate for what WillPitt is feeling right now. (and me too, though I did not know Andy at all, I am PO'd as hell about the whole thing).

He will say something so amazing that I and everyone else in that hall will weep. He is a powerful writer and a powerful speaker. I just hope he can get through it without crying. Then again, it really doesn't matter if he does since no one else will.
Andy was a good man and he picked an equally good man to eulogize him.
(BTW, Robeson. I just used your post as a jumping off point. No disagreement with what you said)

They deserve to be kicked out of the human race. Their actions and words were vile and despicable.
They had every right to disagree with Andy's politics and issues, but to attack him in such a personal and hateful manner was beyond the pale.
I wish you Godspeed in your mission.
p.s. You'll make Andy's friends, family and associates, laugh, cry and smile. You'll also inspire them. This I know.

18. Right after Andy's diagnosis.... |
|
He gave me your phone number to make sure you gave his eulogy if the unthinkable happened. I told him not to be morbid.

20. Barbara told me this story yesterday. |
|
I laughed, because it was funny on its face. But I got a little pissed after that for a variety of reasons, one of which is the manner in which we arrived at this point.
At any rate, I shall see you next week. Wish it was under better circumstances, but I'll raise a glass to Andy with you.

21. Oh hell now I'm crying again... |
|
one of the things I wanted most in the world was to sit between Will and Andy some day and raise a glass. I miss Andy. :cry:
But I will be honored to sit between you and Will and raise one in his honor. :hug:
