dudecab, are you serious! did you say anything to him?
We asked him what his name was, to make sure it was him, but I didn't tell him that I knew he was famous. :( I'm lame.
i wanna go have lunch there with you and tell him he's famous, even though i still don't understand the the whole story. ~grin~ ohohohohoh.
The story is, he headed an effort to raise money for a skate park for his city, and he was so successful that he was awarded the Prudential Spirit of Community Award.
From THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2001:
Senate Resolution No. 62: A Senate resolution commending Grant Kjos of Alexandria,Minnesota, on receiving a Prudential Spirit of Community Award
let's bring him a skateboard and ask for a demo. :}
The REAL story is that once, 3 years ago or so, Mel and I went to the downtown Olive Garden with some friends (I think it was Marc & Becky?) and our waiter chatted us up very entertainingly. Among other things he told us that there was a day named after him. So I got his e-mail and promised to have a bunch of random people send him e-mail on Grant Kjos day.
