A long-ass time ago, in a galaxy not that far away, George and Camille were active in the National Society of Black Engineers (better known as NSBE). We KNEW of each other - had mutual friends (maybe some of them you'll meet...lol) - but didn't really know each other.
Slow forward to the 21st century, and through the miracle of Facebook, we NSBE folks connected, and it was impossible to miss the dazzling smile of the cute girl from Kansas City. So despite being 1700 miles apart, we decided to meet for brunch at a location forever known as
29.7391" N, 95.4635" W - as to WHERE that is, take your best guess. (Answer below.)
(
George's Note: You'll have to look it up...and
don't blame me, she got me a bracelet with that on it.)
Camille: "I was mad about something on Facebook, and he said something like, "With that smile, you are to cute to be that angry...lol" He told me he would be in town, and maybe we could have coffee." (
EDITOR'S NOTE: This is pre-"Luke Cage" (Great show, check it out!), so "having coffee" meant actually
having coffee.)
Camille continues,
"I told my girlfriend I was going out on a brunch date with a strange guy that I haven't actually met, this is his Facebook page and name, should I disappear..."
George: "I didn't know about ANY of this for years. I didn't realize I had a charming serial killer thing going on, you know? Black Dexter!"
"And I was right, she IS too warm to stay angry!"
Camille:
"I met a charming, handsome, and talkative man. We bonded over football...and the rest is history as we began a magical ride..."
George: "Man, to meet a woman who KNOWS football - not just, 'he's cute in those tight pants', but understands Cover 2 vs Cover Zero? JACKPOT!"
"But she left out the coffee part..."
Camille: "We bonded over football while I drank coffee..."
George: "When she started working on her second POT of coffee, I was thinking, 1) 'Either I'm boring the living hell out of her, and I better do something', or 2) 'She
REALLY likes coffee.'
"Luckily for me, it was the latter, and there was a second date...and a 3rd..."
Camille: "It wasn't that much coffee. Lol. But, it wouldn't have been a long conversation if he hadn't been amazing."Can't guess the spot? Click here:
