I was at the Journalism Educators Association national high school journalism convention in Anaheim all day.

Maybe it was Ron Taniwaki you saw...

I thought all 'round eyes' looked alike? Isn't that what you always told me!

I didn't actually think it was you, just thought there was a resemblance.
