The Flight Home

Joe emails: "I came back from a meeting in Chicago and behind me sat this overweight man with a mustache and a seventies haircut, covered in dandruff. Everyone around me was murmuring, and the air attendants (the male ones) starting taking pictures with him, every one talking very reverently to him. One person walked over and said in an awed voice, I really admire your work. That person informed me that the recipient of all this honor was Ron Jeremy, famed… reality show star. I suppose that’s how adulation is earned in our society."
