Best wishes to my airplane seatmate

The man sitting next to me on the airplane this week looked familiar, and turned out to be Rahm Emanuel, soon to become the chief of staff to our next president.  We exchanged a few pleasantries, and I wished him well on the task that begins on January 20.  I got the sense that he's not quite used to being recognized outside the Capitol and his home district, something that's going to change for him soon.  I hope he gets some rest on his time away; he's going to need all the energy he can muster to help the new administration pick up the pieces that the current one is leaving on the floor.

You are such a jet-setter, Isaac! Hope this turns into a plum appointment opportunity. :)
