My name is Figby and I have been asked to convene a short meeting of members of the General Assembly this morning.” “Who the dickens are you, squirt? Where is David Ralston, our beloved speaker?” “As I said, my name is Figby. I am chief conciliator for the Yarbrough Worldwide Media and Pest Control Company, located in Greater Garfield, Georgia. My boss, Dick Yarbrough (“Boo! Hiss! Pfft!”) has asked me to get you all together to see if we can’t come to some consensus as to whether or not you play by the same rules that you require of the rest of us. As for the speaker, he is taking time out of his busy schedule to lobby newspaper editors around the state on why he can’t take time out of his busy schedule to try court cases.” “Ha! Ha! Ha! That’s our speaker! The guy is one of a kind! Clap! Clap! Clap!”
