Tim's a nice dude.. had a wonderful discussion with him when i served him at the restaurant i bartend at. maybe he'll overlook the fact that i only meet the #1 mandatory requirement and take me along as his co-pilot.

of course... this probably just means taking the role of personal assistant and walking his dogs, dropping off / picking up his clothes from the dry cleaner, finding him the most affordable flights, getting his coffee, etc.
