...went to the MacWorld Expo. And, because I'm such a chick magnet, I
even got quoted by a reporter for the Boston Globe in her story on the
Expo. I played the role of the guy who was getting married in two days
but decided to duck out of that scene to look at the latest in C
compilers for the Mac. My quote was, I believe, "Well, technically I'm
probably not supposed to be here, since the wedding is in two days..."
She was _so happy_ to run into me after she'd been there only 10 minutes
or so, because after talking to me and a couple of other geeks near the
main entrance, she had a story that pretty much wrote itself.
That was approximately the fifth most geeky quote I have ever given to
the press.
On my honeymoon (first one - 1988), I thought it would be way cool to go
visit BF Skinner in his office at Harvard. We did that - spent about 30
minutes talking with him - and it was a great experience. We were
divorced 7 years later, but I don't blame Skinner. I didn't need any help
from him.
