cheers!

last night, while attending "welcome to our week" at rififi, i spotted warren st. john saddling his way up to the bar. not one to be shy, i decided to say hello.

i touched his arm gently and asked, "warren st. john?" lest he be a look-alike. nope, it was him. he smiled broadly and said, "yes!" and then words just tumbled out of my mouth.

"i loved 'rammer jammer yellow hammer," i said. he replied, so modestly, "get OUT!" and chuckled a bit.

"no," i said, "it was great -- i went to the university of georgia and i'm a football fan and..."

"oh, my mom's from savannah!"

"really? well, just wanted to say i really enjoyed it. that's all."

"thanks!"

i then slithered back to my table. a few seconds later he walked by, raised his drink to me and said, "cheers!"

oh, and the comedy show was good, too.
