Brad Pitt, and not I, can take credit for that. Despite some disconnection with reality that goes with celebrity, they are trying to help and are doing good here.
Best Hopes for Many Hands,
Alan
BTW, Brad Pitt is also better looking than I.
There's a conclusion here you might have missed: Plastic surgery to make you better looking will help you better promote commuter rail.
Best hopes for good looking commuter rail passengers.
Now Alan - and Future,
I think the "friendship version" of the oldie applies...
Just The Way You Are
By: Billy Joel
Don't go changing to try and please me,
You never let me down before.
And don't imagine you're too familiar,
And I don't see you anymore.
I would not leave you in times of trouble,
We never could have come this far.
(etc.)
If Alan got his face chiseled into Brad Pitt looks then when he stood up to lecture on commuter rail everyone would stop and listen and agree.
It might not be fair. But people listen more to extremely good looking people.
Hi Future,
re: "people listen more to extremely good looking people."
Well...good looking?...hmnnn.
In what "looks" category would you place, say, M. Gandhi, Mother Theresa...? Or..., well, many examples.
Some people have a "good-looking" vibe - you know?
My guess is some on TOD possess such a quality.
We'll see.
