He was on my Southwest flight to LAX in 2001 and there was a palpable buzz among the pax.

Then ran into him while we were waiting for our rides at the white zone, which is for loading and unloading only.

I presented him with a super tacky giant gold coat button I had just found at a payphone as if it was an achievement award, and had a fun quick chat. Lovely and delightful guy.

When I met him, we had some absurd questions during the audience participation part. My friend asked, "suburban Baltimore is such an interesting backdrop for a movie. Both mundane and interesting. As a young black artist in America, I'd like to know what you think about lowriders."

My other friend had him sign her maxipad wrapper. This friend also happens to be the nice of Patsy from Ab Fab.
