Vincent
thought that the people attracted to greenskeeping work at The Club
probably fit a certain profile (himself included). He also thought of, The New Colossus, a sonnet by Emma Lazarus, written in 1883 and, in 1903, engraved on a bronze plaque and mounted inside the Statue of Liberty.
Perhaps Vincent would create an inscription for the staff's very own bronze break-room plaque:
With silent lips. "Give me your anal retentive, your OCD,
Your persnickety fussbudgets yearning to control free."
