"Hello, Best Western Inn & Suites Des Moines. May I help you?"
"Your name please?"
"B-O-O-K-E-R. Do you spell 'Cory' with an E?"
"One hundred rooms from June 1, 2019, to February 1, 2020. That's a lot, but I'll do my best to accommodate you."
"Sir? You're in luck. We just had someone with the same order cancel on us, so we can just give you the rooms we reserved for him."
"How did you know his name was Marco?"

Subject: Correspondents' Dinner?
Steve,
So far, the meetings with Congress are going great. Lots of eagerness from the Rs (even ones who weren't super helpful in the election) and the Ds are more open-minded than we thought.
One thing keeps coming up though- when does planning for the White House Correspondents' Dinner start? A number of members in both parties offered to let the boss insult them in his speech. I said I'd look into it.
