This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for December 22, 2008:
Pat Metheny & Charlie Haden! Two for the road
We met for the first time in Hong Kong at a weeklong multilateral trade negotiations seminar. We were both apprentice officers to senior government officials. I didn't even know where Nepal was then. We felt good vibrations, emotionally and intellectually, when we first interacted at the group's inaugural reception/dinner. There wasn't that much time to get to know each other well then so we remained in touch through letters (snail mail), few phone calls, visits in between official and study missions. It took five years before he proposed marriage and I accepted. So we have this oft repeated joke that we met in a multilateral trade negotiations seminar and ended up with a bilateral negotiation. Above is our love theme!
