I <3 Bill!!!!!

[heidi]

My grandma just kissed Bill Clinton!
Or, technically, he kissed her! And I got a mini-glomp so I'm quite satisfied - plus, I got to talk to him a bit about how the first time I met him was at Penn back in 1992, and *he* remembered that it was April on Earth Day and omg the man's memory is amazing and he looks so slim and superhot and it was wonderful!

And on the way out I got to speak with our school superintendent Rudy Crew, who is just fantastic for the county schools, so that was an extra-amazing treat.

But nothing will compare to my grandma - who first saw a president when Herbert Hoover came to Philadelphia - getting kissed by Bill Clinton.

Wow.

ETA almost a year later - I did a self-google, and I found this. Oh, Bill! You make me so happy, no matter what you do on your own time. Always and forever

Yay grandma!

I remember how excited I was just to shake hands with Clinton. Can't imagine what it must have been like for your grandma *g*

Awww! That's adorable! All I got to do was shake his hand (er, back when he visited my middle school... *feels young*).

Almost certainly the most important thing that happened to him that year.

Clinton is awesome - that completely rocks :-)

I got to shake his hand once too, on a campaign stop in 1992. I was *cough* quite grown up by then. Did he break your little hand? He's got a grip like a bear o_O

No wonder the man's codename was "Elvis." =)

(Darrell Hammond tells a great story about how he went to do a show at U of Iowa and a young lady ran up and said "I'll flash you if you do Bill Clinton." He replied "That is sick! That is so...that...(drawl, biting lip, thumb) that is sooo siiick..."

stupid 22nd amendment. I hold it in the opprobrium I usually reserve for the 18th.
