Grimm

Today I met Michael, who was quick to point out that his friends all call him "Grimm" because they think he looks like someone on the popular television show. He wondered if my photo of him would end up on TV or not as his friends would really get a hoot out of that. I told him no, but that the photo may be seen by several dozen people around the world on blipfoto. He seemed non-responsive to this news.

Michael is 56 years old and lives with the elderly man who raised him. He talked a good deal about how he has cheated death numerous times over the years. "God sure is with me," he said. He then proceeded to tell me about the time his friends put make-up all over his face because "That's what they do for the actors on Grimm." We both laughed. Michael invited me to coffee at a local Starbucks, but I had to get back to the office. We agreed it would be a blast to sit for awhile and chat someday. I will definitely take him up on the offer.
