Seymour Butts reacted to julius in 411 Billy Baldwin currently in Boston
Noël Coward had a great trick when forced to sit through a terrible play in which a friend was performing. Afterwards, he would walk up to them, beaming, and exclaim: "Darling! 'Marvelous' isn't the word!"
Similarly, Harold Ross, editor of the New Yorker, was a master of faint praise, once writing in a letter of recommendation: "the man who gets Mr. Jones to work for him will be lucky indeed."

Seymour Butts got a reaction from + Robster in Question about Tristan Baldwin
I was confined to a wheelchair after a car accident. Then I met up with Mr. Baldwin, and now I can walk again!

Seymour Butts reacted to rvwnsd in Question about Tristan Baldwin
I believe Tristan can snap his fingers and teleport himself to wherever he wants to go. He developed that skill after he was late to an appointment (with me) due to a fuel tanker accident in which the resulting fire melted a freeway. (No, I'm not making this up.) If he could only prevent fuel tanker accidents...
