Heh, no kidding. My FIL probably knew more than his share of heads of state, but that was due to his entire career being in the Foreign Service. My dad, however... just kinda lucks into these things. (It probably doesn't hurt that he's also brilliant, and had his own top career in industrial management/engineering, so I suspect the savvy person at LG thought, here is a retired person whose insight is still pretty amazing, and we can get his advice for free! ... and thus put my dad on the conference call with the president of LG and the director of quality control. Just should not surprise me in the least anymore... but it still does.)
Though I think my dad was very much intentional the time he called me and said, "So last friday evening I was in NYC with G, having dinner with the King."
