I Got to Meet Jackie Chan!

[the_gneech]

I was at another showing of the "Shaolin Wheel of Life" show, and he came in with a couple of attendants (the usual 'celebrities always have somebody lurking nearby' types). He sat not too far away, and seemed to enjoy the show.

Then suddenly we were outside at some kind of beach house or something, it was a bright sunny day, and he was sitting in a lawn chair looking up at me as if to say, "Yes, you wanted something?"

I was, naturally, quite surprised to suddenly be having an audience with Jackie Chan. Uttering a wildly intelligent, "Jackie Chan!" I gave him my best Kung Fu bow. He grinned, apparently pleased by that.

"So who are you?" he asked.

"Just a Kung Fu student," I told him.

Then, we were inside the same beach house, and he said, "My chiropractor teaches Kung Fu. He's also a black belt in Tai Chi Chu'an."

"Really?" I said. "My chiropractor does too." [1]

Suddenly, Jackie looked bored, like the conversation had gone on longer than he actually wanted it to, and there was some activity outside.

Then I woke up to the radio going off.

That's pretty bad ... two whole sentences, and I made Jackie get sick of me that fast.

This obviously reveals a fear of inadequacy complex. My recommendation is to draw more comics.

My roomie, Ben, has met Ben Afflack sevreal times. Each time Mr. Afflack has been Satan. Moral of this story? Stay away from Ben Afflack.

Will he try to sell me insurance? -TG

Either that or leave goose poop (and a feather) on your shoe...

That's what I get for not finishing. Here I was screaming and running around yelling, "The Gneech met Jackie Chan!" and then I finish reading. You, my friend, are a sneaky little skunk!

Well how do you think I felt when I woke up?

Besides, I'm not a sneaky little skunk, I'm a big sneaky lion!

On a sort-of related note, I just learned that the Shaolin Monks have just canceled all California appearances. Ah, well. (My original comment was something like "Well, I'll be--the Monks are uncalled" but this was somehow misunderstood.)

And you got to see them twice!

So you can't tell dream from reality in a dreamstate, then? I guess I've trained myself enough to do otherwise, though it's hard to remember when I couldn't.

But then, dreams are hard to remember, anyway.

I concede, you aren't a skunk. *Hugs you, pulling out a hidden paintbrush loaded with black paint, which he runs down your back in a long stripe.*
