Bradshaw, Virgil G.

Bradshaw, "Brad", is a former big city Associated Press employee. He was raised in Missouri where he learned to how to talk slowly. When he lived in the New York area, he learned that New Yorkers equate slowness of speech with idiocy, so he attended the Pennsylvania School of Auctioneering where he learned to talk fast and graduated as president of his class. He lives on the side of a mountain with his wife and waits for any of his eight children to come and visit.
