Had a nicely dressed couple come in my store today to look at a Hancock and Moore Recliner and other accessories. Very pleasant folks. They told me they had bought windsor chairs from me in 2000, but I didn't remember them from that far back - my memory is not the world's best.

He was very busy on his Blackberry. Making a LOT of phone calls as he moved from recliner to recliner. It took a while to put it all together but before too long I realized he was a U.S. Senator (its not prudent to mention his name or state). Turns out we all three (myself and him and his wife) all went to the same University at about the same time.

But what I thought was really interesting was that when you make a phone call and identify yourself as a U.S. Senator - you're NEVER put on hold!
