[Albert Sanchez]

How about another "Paul" story!

I don't remember what year it was but Paul and I roomed at National 
Convention with Vince Ricks. One morning part way through the week Vince was 
slow in getting up for morning session. Paul said something to the effect" 
Well! I'll get 'em out of bed!" He then picked up the foot of Vinces' bed 
and began to shake it up and down, while shouting "get outta bed, uglier 
than me!" I never saw Vince move so fast! He was out of bed and ready for 
session in only a few minutes. Paul and I laughed about that for years!
