Remember when Matthew Fox was on SNL...
...and there was that skit about him being in an elevator and everyone who got in the elevator recognized him and started speculating about all things Lost? Well, I was watching my taped season premiere of Season 4 of Lost tonight (and forgot to tape Eli Stone...argh!) when I remembered that several weeks ago I was riding the elevator on the way to my bank, when I realized I was sharing it with...Michael Emerson.And the doors closed.
And we rode.
Just the two of us.
And I stood silently and innocently by, wondering if I should say anything like, "I'm a big fan," (sigh) "Hey, we have a couple people in common," (really?) or, "I love your work." (yeesh) Instead, I stared at the numbers on the elevator change as we rode up, all the while thinking, "BEN! OH MY GOD, YOU'RE BEN! BEN FROM THE ISLAND! WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN NEW YORK CITY; AREN'T YOU AT LEAST SUPPOSED TO BE IN HAWAII OR EVEN BETTER SOME FARAWAY PLACE THAT DOESN'T EXIST ON A MAP?!!!"
And then something really exciting happened next!!!!
Not really.
I filled out a deposit slip and put some money into my checking account, and he did some kind of transaction concerning probably, oh, money or something. And when that was finished, I went about my merry way, while BEN WENT BACK TO THE ISLAND TO DESTROY SOME PEOPLE.
I mean, Mr. Emerson went home or...somewhere.
