Michael Silence and his family stopped by Ben & Jerry’s today to make a few denim squares for a Four Freedoms Quilt. If you haven’t met Michael yet, you don’t know that, unlike other reporters I have met, he is a soft spoken and genteel gentleman. I was thrilled to be able to chat with real grown-ups with careers but bit my tongue when I wanted to babble like an drooling groupie to his wife, “Tell me more about the real world puh-leeze.”
