Hey.
I live in Wilmington, North Carolina, and I work at a super Walmart there. Well. last night, Emmanuel Lewis came into the store! He was trying to get some pictures developed from a family reunion but he wanted to use the picture maker which I had to tell him was not possible since the only ppl who can operate it are the photo lab ppl and they had already left. Well, he then asked if we had any printers that could print photos instantly directly from a media disk from a digital camera.....well to make a long story short, I helped him find one and he ended up buying it....while I was helping him, A few female customers recognized him and asked for his autograph. Well, he was very polite and nice and he granted their request. I then, asked him for an autograph and he was very nice about it. I just wish I had my camera with me...to prove my encounter. I was very impressed with his kindness, and he was very down to earth, not snobby like some celebrities....If you get to read this post, Emmanuel, I am the girl in Electronics who helped you buy that photo printer(Anita)....I was very happy to meet you and take care!
