View Full Version : My 15 minutes of fame
the Legend of LAX
April 27th 08, 12:22 AM
In this month's (May) issue of Popular Mechanics, I was given a brief (2 
paragraph or so) mention in an article on plane spotting. They made it 
sound as if I had planned my whole career around getting to work in the 
LAX tower.
I shall bask in the limelight for a few minutes now.

Poppycock!  We arranged you getting the job so you could bring us 
spectacular photos.

I agree with Bob's last comment.  The first one sounds about right too.
Well done and well deserved.
