Recommendation for Tony Gray, fe Associate position

June 13, 2 001

I HAVE KNOWN T ony Gray for quite some time –and recomend hi m unhesitattingly for this job, which I am absolutely conifdent that he can do.

(Please pardon me for any Irregularities in this document as Tony in typical fashion only notified my yesterday that it was needed

Tony GRAY is no Tony BLAIR but he is a very good leader and probably does have a lot in common with Tony CURTIS, who derssed up like a woman in “Some Like it Hot,” which was recently voted one of the most hilarious movies of all time by the American Film Inst.

Evey year at East Campus Tony would run around with marshmallows in his mouth and he was also th e captain of our “”intramural hockey” team which seldom won because we never practiced but still was quite the team Tonys door was always open and you could go and talk to him whenever you wanted. He had a buzzer rigged up the door that buzzed some times but often you couldn’t tell if it was buzzing and just had to pound on the door yelling, “Tony Tony!’

The housemasters respected Tony and he always handled emegency situations with considerable aplomb, which is more than can be said of some of the others. In fact, Tony’s replacement was terrible and was convicted of arson so, they brought T. back for a little while.

I am sure you have many other candidates for this position, lots of whom may seem to have better and / or more substantive qualifications than Tony but you must consider that he did finish his doctoral Ph.D degre and that should count for something, probably a pay raise too, and, he is Canadian not subject to standard American employment laws etc.

The facts sort of speak for themselves, I think and I probably thus do not need to go on much more. So, consider TonyGray for this job, it is my opinion that he’s pretty cool.

Feel free to contact me for questions and such.

Sincrerely,

Eric J. Plosky
