The Only Republican in San Francisco: Attention ladies

Attention ladies

Stephen Hawking is back on the market. Talk about cojones. As I recall it, he took up with his nurse while married to his first wife.

I had a brief brush with greatness while at a physics conference a few years ago. Dr. Hawking and posse strolled by me in the hallway. They even cordoned off a parking spot in front for him. Every field has its celebrities, and its fanboys.

Update: Reader Bo points out that the good doctor is subtly making his preferences known. I'm telling ya, this physics thing is hot. If I could only convince my girlfriend of that....

Comments

I had the fortune to see Stephen Hawking speak live several years ago after he came out with "The Universe in a Nutshell". As he was coming onto the stage, a woman in the audience shouted some lude comments at him. Everyone in the audience was a bit offended, but he cordially thanked her, defusing the awkwardness.
