So we're walking down the world famous river walk and I see this really tall dude walking my way. He looks kind of familiar but I don't recognize him--but I get real close and see his Laker shirt turned inside out (black, dry fit, with a Lakers logo on the center). So I yell out, "Go Lakers! Good luck tonight!"
He smiles knowingly and Trisha goes crazy. "Why didn't I stop and get a picture with him?" She can't believe it! But I didn't want to make a scene -- but it was great to see a Laker!! How often does that happen?!!
So we go into the Hard Rock for lunch and guess who walks in? It's the same guy!! Yes, I know his name, but do you? So I grab Alex and have him stand on a 4' chair (Alex is about 4' tall). It was a great moment today--and then the Lakers won!! Woo-hoo!!

Let me see... a child of Martinique; an alum of Gonzaga; a member of the French national team; a survivor of heart surgery; gotta be Ronnie Turiaf? What's throwing me is that the tatoo must be new!
