Cool TRue

Elizabeth52, I know what your husband meant. I was returning from a Business trip one time in Los Angeles. She was standing about 5-10 feet away and said to an airline employee, "you don't expect me to stand around with these people, find me a private place". What was ironic about that was that about 10-20 feet in the other direction the Cosmo soccor team was waiting to board and Pele was waiting like everyone else. I asked Pele if he would sign an autograph for my son who was playing soccer in college. Not only did he sign one but he wrote a personal to my son who still has it. She was a true snob, impressed with herself while Pele was a terrific person.
