Like I said, given Caroll's age (and now his health as well), I never thought I'd have an opportunity to ever meet him, and then when I saw he was going to be in town back in October, I knew if I didn't take advantage of the opportunity, I may never have it again, so I did. No, he wasn't in the best of shape, his voice was weak, he had difficulty signing my book, and he was wearing sunglasses most of the time . . . but it was still a great honor and privilege to meet one of my puppeteering heroes, and I made sure I let him know that.
