This is the Daily note from jamesabrown.net after actor Michael B. Jordan won the Best Actor Oscar for Sinners, he went to In N Out Burger, sat in a booth triumphant, with his suit still on and his trophy next to him.

But for me, the most fascinating part was what was going on around him.

The whole place was full of people gawking at him with a sea of phones filming him.

It's no surprise that their videos went viral.

Now, if I didn't want some sort of fame, you wouldn't be hearing from me now.

But that kind of fame, that's more than I think anyone bargained for, even those of us who want it badly.

What do you think?

Let me know on jamesabrown.net on that note, I'm James A.

Brown and as always, be well.
