Default Missed opportunities

Ever miss a graph opportunity because you didn't realize the guy (or
girl) you are standing next to was famous? That's what happened to me
yesterday.

I had attended the Grand Funk Concert (went to see War today and
that's how I found out what happened) and there was this guy standing
there and the guy next to us asked for a graph and someone else did
too. I didn't know who it was and kept trying to find out ... He had
a Gilmore shirt on and I thought he might be a politician (locally)
but I couldn't match him up with anyone. I got a nice photo of him
though... so I gave up, got the Grand Funk graphs and went home.
Today I found out who it was. Bruce Hornsby. Man, can't believe I
missed that opportunity because I didn't recognize him!

Next time, I'll be sure to get the graph and figure out who it is
later.

Well I guess I can have another opportunity to get him then! So he
lives here? I go to Williamsburg often... maybe I'll stop by the
center.

I wish! I just go to something every weekend. At least there is stuff
here to do and a lot of it is free... I guess we are lucky that way.
