Rock 'n' Roll Encounter
Today I had an interesting, if slightly bizarre, encounter. Whilst at work, a visitor posed the question, "Are you English?" I'd not even opened my mouth so he must have heard about me or something. Anyway, to my affirmative response he began talking about the Beatles. I got the impression that I was supposed to be a big fan of them seeing as I come from the same vague geographical region. The Beatles don't particularly excite me, and never have, but it became apparent that the gentleman was quite a fan and had even made a minor documentary movie about one of the members.
He gave me his card.....
It really looks like that. I guess he's kind of like Prince but instead of being a squiggle, he's more of a blob. Actually, I lie: I felt it would be inappropriate to put all his contact details online. But what's that at the top right? Is it a website or is it an e-mail address?
So after giving me the card he asks me to write my name down. It certainly wasn't my intention to give him the impression that I was that interested in his Beatles mania and I asked why he needed my name. I think the reply was something along the lines of "I do lots of different things". Well I reckon that's totally apparent from the card; the guy is obviously multi-talented. I'm not sure how excited I am at the prospect of being involved in his next project.

1) That url/email is pretty interesting. But it's actually a legal format for an email address given the blurred out part is alphanumeric. Regardless, it's awesome to know that I now know someone that is someday going to be a Professional British Voice Over Specialist! Good luck with your endeavors George, don't forget about the little people when you get to the top!
