As some of you might remember, the TV show Ask This Old House did a segment on my home a couple of years ago. Tom Silva did the work and Richard Trethewey, the plumber, also came by to have lunch. It was fun.
This past Saturday Patti and I were at the Wrentham Outlet stores and while walking through the Ralph Lauren store, I see Roger Cook standing there, holding a couple of bags, looking a little bored. Roger is the show's landscaping expert. My guess is he was waiting for his wife to shop.
So I walk up to him and say "Are you Roger Cook?" He said he was indeed Roger Cook. I told him that the show did a thing on my house and of course he remembered the episode, who can forget me, and Patti and I talked to him for a few minutes. We only had Emerson and he was in a good mood, smiling at Cook and acting like a nice little baby, not screaming or pooping or anything. He was a really nice guy and it was nice meeting him.
On a similar, note, a few weeks ago I was on the Delta Shuttle when Steve Thomas walked on the flight. I was already seated so I didn't talk to him. I saw him later that day at the airport returning from NY but he was on a different flight.
I only have one more person from the show to meet and I am done.
