Small Damn World

My friend told me this today on IM:

“So I am teaching this class at the local CC on newtonian physics. Older student trying to chum up to me asks me: “what school did you go to?” When I answered ASU the first thing he asked me was if I knew Zed Shaw. :) When I said yes he couldn’t believe it.”

Alright, so does anyone else find it weird that the following happened: I have a friend who teaches newtonian physics who randomly runs into a student who knows about me and that I went to ASU and makes the connection that I might know this random person at a school of 50,000 students?

I gotta start turning this fame into strippers and blow soon or I’ll miss out.
