What a wonderfully small world we live in; Californians really seem to find their kin and/or friends wherever they are in this state. Of course, when you've met as many people as Trekkies have thanks to the conventions, movies and all the other geek-chic places we are wont to be at, it's just makes sense. Pity the jealous, who now use our original ideas (communicator = cell phone, et al) as "revolutionary", when Gene Roddenberry and his prop masters were the REAL men of genious. Oh yes she did!!!

C'mon, it's a nice story. Certainly you've seen Mike on the steps of the Post Office, sketching. He's always had a nice word to say and yeah, he's a bit of a flirt with the girls, but he's never been rude or mean. Good for him getting to meet his cousin and even better he's housed now.

Joe's actually pretty well connected, entertainment-industry wise. Decent lounge musician too. Your sarcasm is un-warranted.
