Daisy: Surprise SR-71 Fan

Tom says his name stands for Terrible Old Man (T.O.M.). He is anything but! We have known him for years and years, frequenting the same coffee shops and chit chatting through the decades of life in the same spaces. I am amazed it was not until today that I found out he was a total nut for the SR-71. It was his not so subtle shirt that tipped me off. Of course, a long discussion ensued about my cousin Arnie’s genius and leadership of the engine project. Of course, I sent him the Aviation Zoo video and maded his day. He made me repeat everything twice to make sure he got the retelling to his friends corrrectly. I am so lucky to have connections to some brilliant people. It really increases my social capital. LOL.
