It’s when you’re in the car with the bumper stickers of your teh suck!11one!1 and your skill in reading has increased by 1 point that he becomes animated in his discussion of John Williams and no matter what people say about him, he did a brilliant job with the score of Star Wars.
It’s when he leans over to hit the CD button and play, telling you how awesome this part is right here, and that you should listen because it really is brilliant. You know, the part when Yoda lifts the X-Wing out of the swamp.
And he says, “Listen, listen. Ba-da-baaa,” already humming the music before it starts, knowing it by heart.
It’s then you’re struck by how fantastically geeky he is, roll your eyes and tell him you’re not going to listen!
And then you listen.
