That was really cool.

I had my first official Chris Farley moment at the Education Writer's Association convention in Chicago tonight. The keynote speaker was Steve James, the guy who made "Hoop Dreams," one of my all-time favorite films. After his talk, James was surrounded by a throng of admirers. I, of course, was one of them.

Pretty freakin' cool, if you ask me.

fun. I'm glad you're having a good time. Did you get him to sprinkle some magic mojo dust on you? What does he smell like? Did you swoon? Did you have him sign your arm? Chest? Napkin? Good night, love.

No, nothing like that. I merely bask in the memory.
