One of my touches with greatness; I met Weird Al. He was besties with my college roomie's wife in high school, so I met him at the wedding. I was a sleep deprived grad student, and without his pencil moustache he looks exactly like my pal Tal, who came from a vastly different non wide-bandgap semiconductor social circle, so I had a fairly surreal conversation with him, "Tal? How do you know Mike?"
"I'm not Tal, I'm Al."
He was a pretty cool guy; no pretense about him, and he could have totally trolled me, but was just real nice about it.
