My coolness factor

Some of the guys in my local bowling league have a vague idea that I’m some kind of writer, but don’t know the specifics, and I never make a big deal about it.

That changed a bit yesterday when Howard Stern was doing a Star Trek trivia question: What was the name of Sulu’s daughter? Sulu himself, George Takei, was on as he sometimes is, and he made reference to “The Captain’s Daughter” written by Peter David. The result? One of my teammates asked if I was the selfsame guy mentioned on Stern. Naturally it was and he spread mention to other folks. So I think my coolness factor was bumped up a bit.
