time, BtA! I saw him on tv being interviewed for something during the bush years and he was saying .. "I'll probably get in trouble for this but".. and then he went on to say something about supporting Democrats. I loved him even more.

How fun you met him.. your Dad was TA and your Mom had a role.. and you and your brother were in a background scene with C.Thomas Howell! 6 degrees and all that!
