Justin Long, Actor

“I used to come here as a kid. My dad was a teacher and he’d have conferences and stuff at Temple or Penn. It was the first place I ever got lost too—so lost that it traumatized me. It was in Rittenhouse Square and I just remember, you know when you’re a kid, that feeling, like all of a sudden, ‘Oh my God, I’m not part of my family anymore’? They called the cops. I wasn’t used to seeing pigeons and I love wildlife, so I followed one and eventually lost my family. And then I used to be in Boy Scouts because I was an adventuresome nerd, and so I walked the whole Freedom Trail a couple times on my hands and knees. The only people who recognize me lately seem to be like, ‘Oh, hey, the Mac guy!’ Last night I was at the Walnut Room and this girl just walked up to me and said, ‘You know what, I have a PC.’ And then she walked away and I didn’t know if it was like a flirty fun thing she was doing or if it was aggressive.”
Justin Long, currently starring in Apple commercials, appears this month in the film Accepted.
