My Brush with Greatness
I have had several
brushes, if you will.
I used to work for a
cinema company in St. Louis.
In that time, I met three Academy Award
winners (Yul Brenner, Kevin Kline and Kenny Loggins,)
who also qualifies as a Grammy winner. Other Grammy winners would be
George Carlin and John Denver.
You see to a Cardinal fan, so you might
recognize Bob Forsch.
Also many other athletes, other famous people as well.
The one thing that they all have in
common is that I didn't bother any of the for an autograph.
I know that they are famous and should expect such intrusions, small
though they may be.
But to me, they were at my establishment to get away for a while, just
like everyone else.
The one exception was Mr. Kline, who
was signing for others and actually asked me if I wanted one.
He was attending a private screening of a film called "Cry Freedom".
Very underrated.
Anyway he came to the lobby, like he
were escaping insanity for a bit.
Asked me to sit and we talked for a few minutes about nothing at all.
Very nice man.
