Aaron Wishart

The other night I was just leaving a shoot in Sherman Oaks and I looked down and was surprised by the txt message which I received. Two weeks after I was born my parents moved to a new city and within a few months I met my friend Aaron Wishart. We have a lot of stories to tell about the childhood adventures we had up until I was 7 years old. I will refrain from telling them right now, but if you are interested you can ask me in person.

When I was 7 my family moved to California and Aaron stayed in Minnesota. Six years later when I was 13 I flew out to visit him for a weekend, another six years later when I was 19 he drove out to where I was living and we went to a music festival, six more years later when I was 25 we had dinner in Venice Los Angeles. So last week when he txt’d me from LAX needing a ride it was a welcome surprise. At the time I was only 20 min from LAX, so I jetted over there and picked him up. He hadn’t seen my sister in 15 years, so we headed over to her place and had a lot of fun catching up till late into the night.

And as an added bonus (some of you will understand this) Aaron owns a Mac book Pro. It’s funny how our friendship which started over 25 years ago still feels as comfortable as it did then. And even funnier that we both work with computers, both love adventures, and both own Internet capable PDA’s and Mac book Pros. This, however, is just a small coincidence compared to some of the other un related stories I can tell.

Thanks for the txt Aaron, it was fun!
