You know, Mike is really on the "cutting edge" of style,........ but later on this bit. I went to a neighbors wedding, that Mike was conducting, and got lost, ( which is beginning to be a routine act for me.) I finally located the very small church and decided to enter at the door on the side of the building, because it was open. As I approached the door I noticed the bride standing right there, I shrunk down a little so I wouldn't be too noticed, but was, and quickly remarked "I sorry I'm late". She abruptly responded, kind of annoyingly that I needed to walk down the side aisle of the small chapel to find a seat. As I snuck in the back, everyone turned around, because at the same instance the music began and the bride practically followed me in. I'm sure the crowd was pleased that "I" wasn't the bride to be, but a little bewildered at my timely entrance. Anyway back to the story of Mike on the cutting edge. He performed the wedding very nicely and then announced to the congregation the introduction of what was suppose to be "Preston" and "Christine", but came out "Prestine". Thank goodness everyone laughed.
Really when you think about it, was he the one who coined "Benafer", and "Branjolina?" Who really knows, but as for me, I think it stands to reason that he is the man who coins the phrases we all wish we'd said!
