Victoria and Joanne stoke the flames from the sidelines each day, and Diane sometimes reins Neil in unfortunately. And as I said, I couldn\u2019t imagine a day without our back and forth. Our friendship enriches my life each day and I feel very, very lucky to have found two such good friends in my old age\u2026<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Paul<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> Fredslist <fredslist-bounces@gothamnetworking.com> <b>On Behalf Of </b>Neil Hollander<br><b>Sent:</b> Friday, November 30, 2018 5:28 PM<br><b>To:</b> fredslist@gothamnetworking.com<br><b>Subject:</b> [Fredslist] The Trinity<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>So\u2026.. I\u2019ll be 75 years old this July . How the hell did this happen ? Answer ? It didn\u2019t . Along the way there are many stories to tell. Colossal milestones and events that literally blew my socks off . Family and friends accompanied me on the voyage . Priceless entities in a journey for the ages . </span><o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'> And so it goes . The Autumn of my years . And much to my delight a phenomenon sweeps in and grabs me when least expected . Fred coined it The Trinity . It started a few years ago . Through Gotham . Fred arranged that I could be a part of the amazing concept . It was a rocky beginning as I stepped across many boundaries and did anything but choose my battles . The Politics Page became my bully pulpit. And how presumptuous was I to think I could rant and rave and tangle with the likes of Corey Bearak and Jane Jacobs and most of Fred\u2019s Army. I had few allies . Fred was in constant repair mode . Paul Napolitano and Erik Scheibe had my back . But Fred really hung in there big time .</span><o:p></o:p></p><p style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'> So Paul and I being thoroughly frustrated by the politics page began texting each other . Fred and I were already \u201c talking \u201c several times a day and soon all three of us were texting all day long . Politics, sports , music, food , wine ,woman and song . Relationships, kids , nothing is off the table . It\u2019s a MEN\u2019S GROUP that Fred coined \u201c The Trinity. \u201c I have a 65 year history with Joanne and close to that with Fred . The relationship exceeds most that I cherish And this Mench of a Man Paul . Having Mr Napolitano and his beautiful wife Victoria in my life and completing The Trinity has been an astounding surprise in my life . Considering that I thought I made my last friend long ago . The Trinity trumps most all for me. The brainstorming keeps me relevant. The timing couldn\u2019t be better . Thanks Gotham .
