Transcript:
Nancy: Come on---Senator blood is speaking at the town hall.
Sluggo: Why can't we hear him on the radio?---He's on a national hook-up.
Nancy: Because I want to see him in PERSON.
A friend took his home movie camera along to a Jimmy Carter rally during his first run for the Presidency. It was so densely crowded that he couldn’t get a clear view of the candidate. He finally resorted to just pointing his camera in the general direction where he thought a break in the crowd might open up.
He finally managed to get a clear view of a very small part of Carter’s face… briefly visible through a little space among the flailing arms and hands of the surging multitudes.
Visible for less than a second, but unmistakably HIM. No one else had an oversized toothy grinning smile like that.
My pastor was ordained a couple of years after she left us. She was new when she was sent to my church and then in the middle of the pandemic they sent her somewhere else. I was able to watch the ordination service on TV and I had seen other pastors as the words were being spoken by the bishop. But she had so many supporters surrounding her at the important moment that I couldn’t even see her.

Sort of like Wilson from Home Improvement. Nobody could completely see him either.
