Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Here is a cool story for a friday. My brother was flying from DC to San Francisco yesterday and got bumped to first class. The company he works for was bought by another and there have been endless hostile meetings and he and a coworker were on their way to another. They needed tio prep and weren't sitting together, but my bro noticed the Nice Guy next to him was traveling alone and working on a laptop with an iPod and thought he might be amenable to moving. He asked politely and the Nice Guy said no problem and started gathering up his stuff. My Bro was helping him and noticed a couple of other fliers giving him funny looks. It wasn't until the Nice Guy stood up that my bro realized it was Al Gore!

Bro apologized, but Gore was really sweet and said he was planning to work the whole flight, so it didn't matter where he sat. Bro thanked him and said "I bet if I asked the present Vice President, he'd swear at me and then have me thrown off the plane." Gore laughed and said maybe so.

How cool is that and how much of a doofus is my brother?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And...I'm spoiled for this week's Hex. Though it is up for mention, being old in the UK.

Must go watch Matt thing.

Robin, that's a really excellent story.

And I just watched the Matt video. Rwanda looked kinda cool, in a enthusiastic kid sort of way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is fantastic, Robin!

I sat across the aisle from John Kerry one time (in coach), but there was no interaction, and he wasn't that famous then.
