I was in a tenth grade journalism class. I liked reading National Lampoon and somehow I found out that he lived one town over.
I looked him up in the phone book, and there he was! So I called and talked to him and we had him in as a guest speaker for our journalism class. I gave him a tour of the school then brought him to class when it was time and got to introduce him.
He said I was no Ed McMahon, but what do ya expect from a 16 year old? ;^)
He was very nice.
