qatarperegrineMy friend Lanny shook Bill Clinton's hand this afternoon!
The whole HR department was at the Ritz for lunch, with someone who's visiting on a pre-employment trip. As they were about to leave, they saw a car being guarded by Secret Service agents, so they lurked nearby until Clinton got out of the car. Clinton started heading for the hotel, but when he heard our HR director say, "Hello, Mr. President!" he veered over and said hello. He shook their hands and asked them what brought them to Doha.
The third member of HR (besides the director and Lanny) is a serious Clinton fanatic. As in: she has his photo on her wall at work, and when the students asked us to decorate our office doors to represent our interests or personalities, the first thing she posted was the dustcover to My Life. So, while I haven't talked to her about this afternoon, I have to imagine that shaking Clinton's hand and having her picture taken with him was the highlight of her year.
