Will Rogers is a good-hearted character, performer and humorist from central USA, from a number of years ago. He was noted for his gift of putting anyone at ease from the elite to the most humble. The words "I never yet met a man that I didn't like." was one of the quotes attributed to him. See the following link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_Rogers for further details. Sorry to make the assumption that everyone knew what I was talking about. It will happen again.

When he had departed, to dead silence, one of the quietest members of the team said "I guess Will Rogers never meet Ted." The following roar of laughter could even be heard by Ted. ...and not shooting, drowning or any other forms of mercy killing?
