  So I shook Bill Clinton's hand and had him sign my book at his book signing at Elliot Bay Books in Seattle. I tell ya, I almost gave up many times. I was near the end of a 1700 person line, and Bad Bill arrived late. Overall, I arrived at 7, and was looking Mr. Pres in the eye at about 10:40. He looked exhausted!!
And he had a devious look about him.. Ashley from our cohort filled me in on a tip that PEARL JAM may be making a surprise performance at the Showbox. Dammit, she was right. I WAS SO CLOSE TO LEAD SINGER EDDIE VEDDER!!!! STILL, THE EXCITEMENT OF THE EVENT OVERWHELMS ME!!! AHHHHHH... I worked at the Northwest Summer Brewfest at St. Edwards State park in Kenmore. Wow, quite a time that was. Everyone there at the event was pretty much hammered. Except the staff. I got lotsa free t-shirts and fake tatoo's. Which is good enough for me.
