I am so serious!  I really did.  If you Google him he gets about 10,000 hits (and they are all really him)!  Out of respect for him and Ben I won’t tell you who it was but he is a very BIG name in the medical community. 

This was how the dinner was prepped to me by Ben: “So do you want to have dinner with me and this dude? (and he really called him dude).  He made a reservation for 3 at Morton’s but I don’t really know what it’s about.  You wanna go?”

My response: “Is he paying?” and “sure!”

Low and behold the man has been all over the world, has more degrees and honorary degrees than I can count on two hands, has been involved in some crazy medical issues, was Editor in Chief of one of the largest medical journals in the world, is often on TV and is featured ALL over the Internet!

And the only prep I got was “You wanna go to dinner with this dude?”

And to top it all off he was SUPER cool!
