Despite the mystery meat for dinner, the Wichita Metro Chamber of Commerce’s annual meeting and dinner Tuesday was a great evening.
The annual video provided a bit of Wichita history and one of the biggest laughs of the night when this question was posed: What’s the difference between California and yogurt? Yogurt has culture.
Doris Kearns Goodwin provided lots of history and laughs of her own. The most amazing thing to me, though, was how she spoke. I’m a fast talker myself, but seriously, I’m not sure Doris drew breath. She just talked on-and-on-and-on-and-on-and-on-and-on-and-on-and-on without pausing. Whew.
She still somehow managed to make her points and be entertaining along the way.
The first thing she uttered once the speech was over was a plea for water. By that point, after just watching her, I needed some, too.
