When I was little I used to have a huge crush on Tom Brokaw. When he came on tv I would talk to him like he could hear me. One day he was quiet for a second, and I said "hello" and I kid you not, he said "hello" as well. I knew he had heard me, and it wasn't even the hello at the beginning of the brodcast. how cool is that?
