Special Edition: Random sightings

Sighting #1:

I got an IM from Steve earlier today (unfortunately I was offline). He was eating at Fudrucker's when in comes a "tall kid" who looks like Dan Haren. Turns out it was DAN HAREN!

I'm dying of jealousy. How many times did I hang out with Steve and we never ran into anyone, much less my favorite Oakland A's starting pitcher!

Sighting #2:

Joker told me he was walking outside the Googleplex in Mountain View at lunchtime and saw a bunch of police cars. Apparently some Very Important Person was visiting Google this morning.

Kriss had this eyewitness report:

A line of 10 to 12 black and also tan Expedition SUVs left Google with police escorts about 12:40 PM. Traffic was stopped by a Google employee to let them out to Charleston Avenue. The police cars in the front and at the end of the convoy had their lights flashing.

She learned it was Leonel Fernández, the president of the Dominican Republic, his entourage, and also SAMMY SOSA who must've had big business with Google.
