I'm on my way to OfficeMax located on 17th & J  when I find myself skipping out of the way of a cute girl on a metallic green Fixie.  Seemed rather commonplace.  Upon second glance, I notice that attached to this bicycle is a cart of some sort full of promo for this, the very Web 2.0 application for which I am using!

I find myself very interested and strike up a conversation, touting eveything around Midtown that I am involved with including local music, personal music production, film, and the Sacramento Film and Music Festival.  It's an immediate reaction to market myself.  I learned it in Business School.

Yes, Business School.  Know Thy Enemy.

"What's your favorite movie?"  The girl asks.
"Uhh... Forrest Gump.  I cry every time." I replied.

FORREST GUMP?  28 years on this planet and the best I can think of is Forrest Gump?  Sure, it was the first of it's kind and an immediate classic, but c'mon!  You're trying to impress a pretty girl working for a great cause!  I immediately change conversation and introduce myself.

Sara.  Her name just had to be Sara.  Or is it with an 'H'?  I dunno. 

I respond appropriately and add that I meet too many good people named Sara.  It's oddly true.  My first true love was named Sara.  To this day I still love and miss her.  The nostalgia even forces me to sing "Zack and Sara" By Ben Folds Five like a monkey dancing  with a fresh banana. 

So we finish up conversation, and here I am, and this is fun.  This is life happening.  To Sara(h), I say "Word."
