The most memorable strangers you've ever met.

I met an old man a few years ago at a rather dull social engagement. In a room full of uptight individuals, this guy was a shining beacon of entertainment. He spouted off one-liners, cracked jokes about how boring everyone was at the engagement as everyone turned their noses up at him. Dude had me laughing so hard I literally had tears in my eyes. At one point, the man's son walks up to him with a very stern look on his face. You could clearly see that he was rather pissed off by his father's antics. When I hear the old man reply.. "Son, I'm 92 years old. In five or ten years, I'll be gone from this pace and I'll be damned if you or anyone else stops me from enjoying each and every second of it." I bought the man a scotch and walked up to shake his hand. I find myself thinking of him every so often. It's been several years now, and I really envy the man's ability to be.. just so damn happy at such a point in his life. Have you ever met someone briefly that you still remember to this day? Lets hear the story.

  • Many many, oh so many. To try to describe even one wouldn't do any of them (or the experience of interacting with them) justice. It would also take forever to write. Let me think about it. It could be fun. But it would take some time for me to get it right.
