Point taken.
From the moment I stepped off the airplane that rainy night in January 1982, Homer Kelley was always Yoda to me. I had flown to Seattle to be personally trained and authorized by him as a GSEM.
He said he would meet me, and as we spilled from the plane into the terminal, I looked to my left and there he was. A little guy in a mid-length green jacket and porkpie hat -- standing humbly but resolutely just outside the ropes amid the waiting family and limo drivers -- and holding chest-high a little handwritten cardboard sign that read "G.O.L.F. "
Yoda.
Looked like him. Talked like him. Was like him.
Proudly, Yoda, Jr. works for me!
