Hello from San Diego! I'm on the West Coast for the ASI San Diego show. The show has been great so far and I have been able to visit the booths of my favorite suppliers and see their new product offerings. One of the best parts of the show was the keynote session with Michael J. Fox this morning.
I arrived at the packed San Diego ballroom of the Marriott Marquis and Marina a few minutes before the 8:15 a.m. keynote. I've long been a fan of Michael J. Fox, most recently more for his activism than his acting (though he's wonderful on The Good Wife). The founder of the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research did not disappoint. Between gentle ribbing on his height and condition, Fox gave a compelling and entertaining account of his career and disease and how each has shaped the other.
