The funny is, we didn't talk a bit about baseball while I drove him around LA.

Here's a little of the dialog while driving around on Saturday night. It started when I was interested in his opinion about something that was going on in baseball.

Harry: "Bill, I don't want to talk about baseball."
Me: "I like singers. How's about you?"
Harry: "YOU like singers. Heh. How OLD are you? Twenty-something?"
Me: "Yeah, 24. So I'm supposed to only like bands with safety pins sticking out of their noses and ears?"
Harry: "Well, don't you?"
Me: "Well, yeah. But that's not all I like." (NOTE: This is all before The Blood)
Harry: "OK, what else do you like?"
Me: "I like singers."
Harry: "Like who?"
Me: "Fitzgerald, Holiday, Vaughn, Como, Sinatra,..."
Harry: (Sharply) "Sinatra's a BUM!
Me: "What?"
Harry: "I like Al Martino."
Me: "Yes, I thought he was great in "The Godfather" and I like all his stuff."
Harry: "Sinatra's a BUM because he doesn't write ANY of his stuff. Martino's a writer AND a singer."

We talked about the big issues like food and music. I was the envy of all my friends.

I drove rock stars, movie stars, and TV stars. Even without the Dodger game passes, Harry was among the top five people who I'd drive around for free. I hope he knew Jesus.
