This was the first time I’ve seen my gf truly impressed by stardom. She has met/worked with many different actors (Jeff Goldblum, Tom Savini), sports stars (Mario Lemieux, Jack Nicklaus), politicians, etc. It was always just another day at work. All through dinner she talked about how gracious he was. He was _happy_ and made everyone around him feel like _they_ were the reason he was happy. Young coworkers who had no idea who he was were in awe. And he smelled nice. She was wearing a silk scarf, and when he hugged her his scent stayed on the scarf. So, even though I didn’t meet him, I did get to smell him.🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-would-you-talk-about-with-smokey/802949.md?page=1)
