Rear Admiral Markus Garibaldi was in his office, just settling in for a
mornings worth of work when the news broadcast came in. One of the office
aides ran into his office and turned it on so the boss of Special Projects
could see it.
After a good watching all he could say was, "When it hits the fan,
it *really* hits the fan. I would not want to be in his shoes at the
moment, nor would I want to be the really big chair either."
Turning his attention to his aide, who was still there, Garibaldi
ordered, "Yeoman, keep my up to date on this firestorm that we have here. I
want to keep informed If the press starts to knock on the door send them to
public relations. If they become a bother, call security and have them
removed."
"Aye sir." replied the yeoman.
With that out of the way, Garibaldi called Lasiter at his sister's
house.
"Hello Caroline, this is Markus Garibaldi. How are you this
morning?"
"Fine thank you, and your self..."
"Just fine. Is Sam around?"
"No, he is out fishing with some lady from the station. Can I take a
message?"
"Thank you, yes. Please tell him that his doctor is having a
run in with the press. Ask him to check out the news, and that I will call
him later."
"Will do. Have a good one Markus."
"Thanks Caroline. See you Saturday for dinner. "
