Yes.

Brush with Fame (or, How the Mighty Have Fallen)

Waiting for my bags at the Salt Lake Airport the other day, who should be waiting at my same carousel than Flavor Flav. I kid you not. He didn't seem to be in a huge hurry, so I went over and had my friend take a picture of us with my Treo. He was very nice, even posing multiple times when my friend couldn't figure out my "push the center button" instructions.

So, I'll accept that maybe something for his new show requires him to come to Salt Lake, but since when does Flavor Flav fly Southwest?

Flava has money for a plane ticket? I thought he was going Greyhound these days.

I think that even Hef's girls next door fly southwest when hef ain't riding shotgun. Which leads me to believe not only is he old and wrinkly but cheap!

I can't believe this discussion has gone on for so long without someone pointing out that people who do transactional work are Not Real Lawyers.

I was going to, but I thought I would wait for you. After all, your firm is more presitigious than my firm.

You should not take anything said to you seriously. Everyone is mocking you. At all times.

Hey, thanks for the heads up. You know I never make jokes in return. In fact, my prior post was typed deadpan.

More importantly, what does PPNYC think? Would she giggle or sneer if you checked her out? She has boobs, you know.
