He had freaked out because he wanted to hear about meeting George Lucas and what that’s like. This is because Jeremy is a huge Star Wars fan. I did not know of this before, actually.
I swore to meet him at the Lifehacker party but true to the spirit of SxSW, everyone’s plans had changed on a dime. I didn’t run into him after that, unfortunately.
Hopefully I will be able to tell him the tale the next time we meet, if I’m not able to type it all out. (It’s a lot better with hand motions and facial expressions and all; text doesn’t quite have the same effect.)
