It's a Small World...

So the other day I had to fly into Dallas for a business meeting...

So I went to Borders on Sunday to get a new book for the plane. I saw a (I think) newly released collection of Conan stuff. (Old stories in a new collection.) Having not read much Conan in a while I bought it.

My wife laughed at me.

Then I got on the plane, and pulled it out of my carry on before sitting down. As I sat down I felt a tap on my shoulder from the guy in the seat behind me.

"I just wanted to say you have good taste!" he said lifting the book he had to show me the cover... It was the other collection of Conan stories that was next to the one I bought.

I honestly didn't expect anyone else on the plane to be reading a collection of Conan stories. Let alone the guy right behind me.

Small world.
