Dear Mark,
Your performance last Friday was extraordinary.
But first things first. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your accepting my request to present. Our committee's directions changed late in the game, and we hung all of our hopes on you. You came through like a champion. Frankly you saved my bacon, just by accepting.
Then you presented like only Mark Chinn can present. Your words resonated with wisdom. They stung with the truth. All of us learned and squirmed. But you were entertaining as well. Big time.
Had you told me the evening before at our meeting that you would get 70 lawyers to all shout "Hallelujah" at once, I would have been skeptical at best. But you pulled it off. Then you played straight man with Mike Kelly, asking him perfect direct examination questions, and you let him shine.
You made history. It appears that you and your two cohorts achieved the highest evaluations in the history of ABA - FLS conferences.
Congratulations, an thank you again for a magnificent performance.
Incidentally, I happen to be writing a not using a pen from Chinn & Associates, having a mint from a neat little metal box entitled Chinn & Associates, PLLC, and munching on a chocolate state of Mississippi attached to your business card. I love it.
Very truly yours,
Blaine B. Johnson, Jr.
