The boy: Why do you have a thing on your bulletin board that says, “God bless you. Stay strong. Kick it. Billy Blanks”?
Me: When I was at Amazon, I used to interview people for the Web site. Billy Blanks had a series of workout videos called Tae-Bo that I really liked. When I interviewed him, he signed that for me.
The boy: Oh. I didn’t know that.
Me: I used to interview a lot of people. You know, I interviewed Harrison Ford.
The boy: Cool.
Me: You know who that is, right?
The boy: Yeah. He’s the guy who invented cars, right?
I’m apparently very well preserved.
