My favorite is the e-mail on page 19, from Sharon Worthy to Brown:
"Please roll up the sleeves of your shirt... all shirts. Even the President rolled his sleeves to just below the elbow. In this crises [sic] and on TV you just need to look more hard-working... ROLL UP THE SLEEVES!"
Yes, indeed, do look more hard-working.
