Popularity

I thought that this was hilarious. A former Central IT-er told me that at a recent Central IT party, they had a picture slide show of "Acis Folks Past and Present." One of the pictures was a giant headshot of me! Just me. Not me in a group of Acis people. But just me. Later, Sonu, who was also present at that event, confirmed this to be true. He also added that there were actually a lot of pictures of me in that slide show - me with Dan, me with John, me with a hot dog.

I've been on this campus for way too long. I know everybody. Worse yet, everybody knows me.

Oh, the joke is that I've never been an Acis folk, not past, not present. Connections, connections, you see.

you know - in my neighborhood in Brooklyn to be "well connected" has entirely different connotations. :)
