Where has time gone? Avery Brooks will be

I JUST had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Brooks yesterday!

And what a fantastic experience. Not only was he one of the nicest people I've ever met (really and truly, I was expecting a bit more gruffness or something, but he was really the nicest guy!), but I went with a group of about 8 people to the convention. We met him first thing in the morning. He made sure to get everybody's names, and he walked around and shook all of our hands.

But the kicker was, 6 hours later as we were leaving, he was coming in through the exit and we were passing by on our way out. He stopped us all to say good-bye, and as he did, he went through all of our names again!! Only stumbled on 2 of them!!

He joked around for a bit, and then we headed off.

Class act AND he's as sharp as ever (sharper than I am right now, that's for sure!)

That sounds like Avery to me: A class act through and through!
