Meetings, etc.

I just wanted to share with you the fact that not only did I get to chat with Terry Gilliam for a bit this afternoon (as you can see from this fine photo), but I walked by a tall man with big white hair whom (I was later informed) was none other than Thomas Pynchon. If you want to know why I didn't recognize him then you're an idiot. Thank you for sharing in my excitement. I'm generally not one to get overly enthused about meeting celebrities, but I feel like this is an obvious exception.
