Book excerpt: Any Twenty By: Gary L Brown Six months ago, Nadia Wolf, as the Creative Director of American Reality Networks, walked into her boss’ office to be fired. Now she was the final, featured speaker in the packed banquet hall at the celebration of the award-winning reality show "Any Twenty" that has broken all viewership records. She would let the audience know that the real credit for the show goes to a wonderful, elderly Virginia horse trainer, affectionately known by everyone as Nana Lisa. “Nadia, pick any twenty real, regular, every day working people --- like those people in my back yard right now, a teacher, a truck driver, a cashier, a doctor, a housewife, a farmer, a retired person --- honey, any twenty you want... any race, religion, color, or creed you want...give 'em a problem, let 'em argue about it, and then tell 'em, okay guys we'll pay you to fix it! Are they smarter than the U.S. Congress? YEP! It won't matter what the problem is, unemployment, climate change, even abortion...no matter how big the problem they'll find a way to fix it. They live in the real world...they always fix things...they have to.” Checking her phone after the speech, “Oh, Dear God...NO!!! It was a text message from David: “Emergency – barn fire, Nana Lisa badly burned, dogs missing, maybe stolen. Taking red eye flight back to Virginia. Sorry, love, I missed your speech. Will call you in morning. So sorry, Nadia. Twenty people may be able to fix things, but it only takes one to destroy them.”
