Whole Foods Galactica

Aaron DouglasAfter a particularly frustrating morning of editing, I left the Rockhead office and strolled around Yorkville trying to get back into the narrative zone. The lunching hour was upon me, and I had a hankering for some overpriced Whole Foods fruit. After purchasing a shiny apple I went to exit the store. I was going up the escalator and saw in front of me a face that I recognized. I couldn’t, for the life of me, pinpoint how or from where I knew this dude before me. Then it hit me with a bolt of awesomeness: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA. In front of me at the Toronto Whole Foods stood The Chief, Galen Tyrol – also known as Aaron Douglas. I reacted instantly, “You’re in Battlestar!” He replied, “Why, yes I am.” “You’re the Chief and you’re awesome,” I blurted out. Smooth, MP. “Thanks,” he calmly responded, no doubt thinking about the organic fare we has soon to procure. With one last ounce of annoying harassment I demanded, “Who is the fifth cylon?!?!?!!” With an air of loftiness he answered, “Oh, I can’t tell you that.” “You’re such a cylon,” I told him. He chuckled a bit, and then we both went our separate ways. And with that small junction of nerdiness, my day was instantly enlivened, and I went back to work with a big fat sci-fi smile on my face. Thank you, Chief… even though you are a cylon and can hear ‘All Along the Watchtower’ in the walls of your mighty ship. NERD ALERT.
