Well I was in true form last night, I was animated and quite wity---without alcohol. Although Paul hadn't seen me interact with people outside of work and he wasn't quite prepared for it. But you know that you are funny when you have people at the other tables laugh and repeat your jokes.

Kani wrote back (I had sent him an email telling him about coming to San Fran for that conference) he remarked that I should bring someone along for that long drive, so I told him that if he wanted he could come with me. I don't think that I can be more obvious than that, so hopefully he takes the bait.
