Actually, André, if I ever saw you at a contest, I would NEVER approach you. I know you are just like us, but I would be scared to DEATH ---

No offense. ;D I was talking to Paul Yath, without noticing it was him. Then, when I did, I began to stutter. I told him I was afraid of meeting pros. So Paul made me hang out with him :-[ And I will never talk to André in real life :wink: ---

I’d say hi, then walk away. Whenever meeting people, I always get a feeling they dont like me, so I would feel that André would be annoyed with me. Sorry André…ya scare me :wink: ---

Yeah, truth be told, I haven’t gone up and just talked to Andre. He’s always super busy. :wink: I hang around with the rest of the nobodies too, well John doesn’t count as a nobody. :wink: Really hope to see you, John, but big congrats!
