Making it right, one paparazzi photo at a time

Today I woke up, a little late and curious what time the Make It Right/Clinton Global Initiative festivities were going down.  15 minutes later, there was Bill Clinton and Brad Pitt.  Shaking hands.  Taking pictures.  Giving thanks to the volunteers who worked for less than one hour for a photo-op.  Where was the parade and media circus focusing on those of us who spend day in and day out here on the block?  Not that I need notoriety and fame, but how unbelievably contrived and phony.  I was, however, in the presence of gods walking among men.  Alright, fine.  It was just a former president and two pretty faces, but damn was it sort of exciting.  Oh, and I was contacted by Perez Hilton through a friend who wanted to use my photos.  Just your average Sunday.
