The Biologist ran into Jay North's wife while in town and spoke with her quite a while as she's the head of the local historical society. A very nice woman who actually pointed out her husband to me, otherwise I never would have recognized him from his "Dennis the Menace" years. A very unexpected surprise. Actually spotted him back in March 2008 and just realized it would fit this category! Another unexpected surprise!
