Yes, if only there were some easier way to extricate myself from that strangely coincidental confluence of things that I said, things that other people said that I only heard about later, things that other people only imagine that I might have side even though actually I had not thought of that but interesting that you would imagine such ridiculous stuff, problematical optics and other unfortunate errors of a political or other nature, that ultimately amount to really nothing. There is nothing else that I can say about that. All I can do is look forward to the day when I can leave this earthly life behind.
