Blast from the Past: Hanging with (the future) Admiral William Adama

In Fall 1997, I was living it up in college. I have my 2nd 4.0, I was in the Campus Activity Board, I was finally out of the closet and I was a RA.

Then I got to hang out with Edward James Olmos. Who knew he would be the powerful Admiral William Adama in Battlestar Galactica. Lucky me to have spent a few hours with him.

He was very interesting and passionate. He came to our little Kentucky school and talked about issues affecting Latinos in the media. It was a very good event.

Oh, BTW I was wearing extensions back then. I always changed my hair every six months. There wasn't anything else to do in that town, so I had to keep things exciting for me at least.
