My brother in law tells a great story about when he met Jimmy Carter.

They were both working on the same house for Habitat For Humanity.
He didn't meet Pres. Carter while working on the house, they were each working on a separate part of the house.
But Habitat For Humanity supplies showers for the volunteers, so my BIL starts taking his shower, when who happens to walk in, complete naked? Yup, Pres. Carter. 😁
