My co worker Jason and I have always been friendly but never did get the chance to really speak with each other in depth until this year’s office party.  He told me about a few of his hobbies, and it turns out that we really have a lot in common.  We got to talking computers and I found that he is a font of really helpful news on the subject.  He even told me what the best paid proxy is: I had just been telling him that I was practically drowning in all the millions of options that it seems like there are now.
