Of course, where I work, he goes by a different name, but there's no one he hasn't met and nothing he hasn't done. Mention the Beatles, and he'll tell you something Paul McCartney shared with him during tea. If you tell him of flying in a friend's twin engine Cessna, he'll tell you of his days as a test pilot for NASA. If you tell him you hiked the Wonderland Trail at Mount Rainier, he'll tell you of his conquest of Everest. There's nothing you've done he hasn't outdone!

We had someone like that at work here too - I called it the "Mine is Bigger than Yours" syndrome! I used to make up names of non-existent software to mention, and sure enough she had tried it already and could tell me what was wrong with it!
