Every time he says Somalia I think of "Iman" ... aka Mrs. David Bowie

2. Met Her In Milan

I was there during the spring fashion shows.
Several of those high end models were staying at the same hotel I was at.
True story: One morning I'm waiting for the elevator and when the doors opened, Iman,Elle MePherson, Kate Moss & Claudia Schiffer were on it.
I rode down to the lobby with them.
Just said hi & I got the "Oh, you're an American. What brings you to Milan?"
Then the doors opened & that was that.
But, I can honestly say that my first thoughts when I got on the elevator were:
1. "Wow, these ladies are tall." I'm 5'9" and they were all taller than me.
2. "Ladies, I know this really good sandwich joint." Of course, I didn't say it, but they were too thin. Even Iman, who never struck me that way.
I saw her again in the lobby a couple days later and she said "Hello again."
Kind of fun that she remembered me.
