Last night Otis and I went with the Juiceboxes to the state capital for the Aggie yell practice in preparations for today's UT/ Texas A&M game. As one of the few non-Aggies in a sea of maroon, it was quite an experience. It made me wish I'd gone to a school with so much spirit.
Anyway, that's not the point of this post. After one of the yells, Mrs. Juicebox leaned over and said "Rick Perry is standing right behind you". And sure enough, I turned around and there stood the Governor of the state of Texas. He is probably one of the most unmistakable faces out there. No question it was him. I felt like I should say something to him, but I was torn between "hi" and "I voted for Kinky", so I opted to stay silent. I would say this experience was a brush with greatness, but I don't think Rick Perry is really that great. So I'll just call it a brush with a man with really great hair.

Rick Perry filmed one of his election commercials in my building, and nobody told me until he was gone. I couldn't have said anything witty to him though, cause then I might've gotten fired. Oh well.
I only refer to him as Governor Good Hair. That may be the first time I ever typed out 'Rick Perry'.

I'd have probably told him, "Guv, if you manage to get that superhighway built, that may just be the first thing you've done thats worth a darn." That's how it would go in my head anyway. Out loud It'd sound more like... well, something I'm not going to print on your blog--save that one for my x-rated blog ;)
