Has anyone else met Dale?

Okay, so my sister said I was crazy after I told her about this guy a bumped into many, many years ago named Dale.

He's this dude that, randomly greeted me while we were at a crosswalk, he had a notebook full of email addresses and names. He asked when my birthday was, and knew exactly how many days I had been alive on earth. He has sent me a birthday card every year since we met that one time, and email on the big number days, like my 10,000th day alive (I was about 27.)

I think he worked or still works at the zoo, because he told me he had a pass for him and a guest to visit the zoo for free (similar to my sister when she worked at the zoo), also had a ton of photos of random people he had met over the years that he took to the zoo.

I never went, because I'm awkward with my friends, it would be painful for me to hangout with strangers.

I was curious if anyone else has met Dale. I think i met him about 15 years ago, and he still sends me emails, wishing me happy birthday.

Sweet dude.

Edit: there's a lot of jokers in Calgary. I'm legitimately curious who else has met Dale, he had a notebook full of names. But I could see how people who don't like those that are different would ignore or brush them off as a weirdo.
