RE: man in black



I met Johnny Cash when I was in 7th or 8th grade, in 1981, at Walnut Hills
High School. He was there (with Brenda Vicarro) shooting a movie called THE
PRIDE OF JESSE HALLUM (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0082939). He was seated in
the front hallway of the school, behind a rope barricade. I stopped and was
looking at him, and he motioned me through the barricade and past the
security guard. Shook my hand, spoke to me for a few minutes and gave me an
autograph. Very cool.
