An old friend of mine works on South Park. Trey knows how to be rich, one day he was having lunch in Marina del Rey looking at the ocean. He points to a boat and says, "Hey that's awesome I want that.

My friend Frankie is a life long Angeleno, and used to be a delightful, fun filled drunk.hes also a very good blues guitarist, and has played all over town.   Anyway, one day Frankie is on one side

Rashida Jones

 

Grammy weekend, and I'm reminded of my favorite Quincy Jones story.

 

Background: Quincy Jones has been famous for a long, long time. For purposes of this story, it's nice to remember who he his--a guy who has been wildly successful his entire adult life. At age 19 he's touring internationally with Lionel Hampton, at age 25 he's doing touring and doing the arrangements for Frank Sinatra. That's before he produced Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad.

 

My co-worker in this story is a beautiful 20something Korean American girl.

 

A couple of years ago I worked an event that Quincy Jones attended. He wasn't the primary honoree, but he was a good friend to the organization. My co-worker's job was greet him as he car dropped him off, lead him through the press area, and deliver him to the event organizers. All told, this should probably take 15-25 minutes. She greets him at the car, "Oh, hello Mr. Jones, etc. etc." He looks at her and says in Japanese, "You are so beautiful."

 

She shot back to him in Japanese, "I don't speak Japanese and I'm Korean." Quincy doesn't blink and asks in Korean, "Would you like to go on a date?"

 

For the rest of the time she worked there, we would call her "Rashida's New Mommy."

I don't think Quincy has a kink (quink?). I like to imagine Frank taught Quincy how to pick up women in every language.
