5. Respectfully.
My biggest brush with celebrity was when I was one of the first to arrive in my small home town to see then President Bush Sr. I was so excited I got to shake his hand. He acknowledged how early we must have got there to see him to be front and center with really the best seats in the house.

I'm no republican, but at the time I did have a lot of respect for the office of the presidency. Age and cynicism has tempered that respect, but I'd still be respectful to a former leader of our country.
