Farewell, Bon Voyage

I realize that farewell and bon voyage are two goodbyes with completely different meanings. I return to the office next week from the funeral of US President Gerald Ford, and from Atlanta, called there to provide succession marketing, management and PR counsel following the departure of top dog Bob Nardelli.

To a great President we bid farewell. To Bob Nardelli we say bon voyage...after all, wouldn't you quit for $210 million?
