"It won't mean anything to you, but any of your blog readers who watch TV food programs may be interested to know that we had an encounter with Andrew Zimmern of the Travel Channel.
We were eating BBQ at a rustic place in a small town outside Austin when a serious film crew came in swinging large cameras and sound booms and followed by a parade of production lackeys. They continued to film and interview around us, to the extent that we may actually appear in the background of any future program that comes of it. (Zimmern & Crew apparently did not consider us colorful enough to feature directly.)
By coincidence, this is my second run-in with Zimmern, and you may remember the first, at Gunderson Clinic in La Crosse a few years ago. I was at a computer in the waiting room when the Bizarre Foods star sat down at the next table. I was so bold as to strike up a chat, telling him we enjoyed his show. He was polite, but clearly did not want to prolong the conversation. Needless to say, he did not recognize me again in here in Texas."
