23 celebrates 25

a couple of weeks ago bo jackson was on campus and it made me wonder who was gonna stop by next. well...i think it's safe to say that it doesn't get any better than this!


"leroy smith". i googled this guy cause i honestly didn't know who he was. this is what i found on his website..."in tenth grade, i beat out mj for the last spot on our varsity basketball team, lighting a fire that inspired him to greatness." it kinda sounded weird to me so before blogging about it i checked with albert. all he could do was shake his head and said don't ask questions like that. he hoped i didn't ask anyone at work and luckily i didn't. ha! just goes to show, don't believe everything you read on the internet. it turns out "leroy smith" is just a character being played by charlie murphy, eddie murphy's brother, so i've been told.


one of tinker hatfield's ingenious designs. the elevens.


spike lee.


and of course...mj.



between our 2 cameras we really didn't get a good shot. i hate the delay on the little point and shoots. but, can you guess who had the closer seat? nope...not albert. it was me! as michael was walking off the stage i got to shake his hand. i was planning on never washing it again but then sure enough albert comes along, takes my hand and rubs it all over himself. i think he thought the greatness would transfer over to him. who's the big dork of a fan now? i guess you can say it's both of us!
