Lots of other folks in the tech industry. I still get picked on to this day by the CEO of OCZ Technology for something I did in Taiwan last year

You mean that one time you went drunken streaking after having a bit too much of grandpa's ol' cough medicine that one time in Taipei? :Q

Hey, I used to live near this Chinese restaurant named Kwan's Kitchen in Windsor, Ontario. One night I walked in and Grant Hill was sitting by the entrance with his girlfriend waiting to pick up his takeout.

My cousin's daughter, Brittany Brooks, was in an episode of Hack playing a hooker's daughter. Yeah, she wasn't even allowed to see the episode she starred in. She played a hispanic girl but she's really half indian and half white. Veronica Bellmont from CNet is someone I exchange emails with but I don't have her number. A friend of mine has done extra work on Law and Order, the Stepford Wives, Stepmom, and just wrapped on her first lead (Naama Katz/Kates depending on whether pretending to be jewish will help her get a role ). Julie Lund was in Meet Joe Black and Small Time Crooks and also was the lead in a recent Neil Simon play - not so close to her but me and her husband are chummy. I've hung out with john lithgow's lesbian daughter a few times (she's really nice). My buddy Joe's in a band that's getting popular very quickly (Saintface) while my buddy Debbie's in a band with an underground following (The John Carpenter Band).

 

[slackerinabox]

OH, and worst of all - I hooked up with Robert Duvall's niece. After she told me I could only see his face on her body and... Not pleasant...

 

[slackerinabox]

sorry, more people pop to mind. I was going to work on a video for the uber hot Jillian Ann but she backed out of the deal because of financial issues on her part - I still have her numbers though. I should sell them on ebay.

My grandfather worked for Lorimar Telepictures for a lot of years, and I used to sit on the sets of several shows as they were being shot..got a chance to meet a lot of people (I remember making a killing when my school had candy bar sales and the like....I'd just take them to the set and they'd be gone in 20 minutes).

 

[liquid51]

Well, I can't call anybody and expect them to know who I am. I actually don't even have any phone numbers, so I'm not in the running for a cookie. But I do faithfully care for a beautiful banana tree that was given to me by the wife of Mike from the Drew and Mike show of 101WRIF in Detroit .

I'm just curious. When i say that you "know," I mean that you could call them on the phone right now and they would know instantly who you are.

As for me...I don't think I know anyone.

I know this famous person, but if I called him on the phone right now he might not remember me. This person suffers from major short term memory loss.

In my first semester at this college, I was in an ice skating class with Caryn Kadavy. She was in the 1988 Winter Olympics.

She'd remember me as the guy who couldn't get his skates sharpened until about 3 weeks before the end of class, and could hardly do much of anything on the ice, except not fall.
I was excessively careful on the ice, and never fell once. I fell flat on my back once when the basement flooded back home. I smashed my toe on a chair as I went down, and it went numb for a few hours, and I messed up my neck a bit. It now has less range of motion, and I still try to keep from turning my head as I can get headaches doing so. My reflexes didn't even kick in when I fell. I just slipped and crashed straight to the ground, with my hands still in front of me. The only thing cushioning my head was the hood of the coat I happened to still have on.
Given my pathetic reaction time, I had no intention of falling again on a slick surface.

Gotta get to lifer somehow.

And I know no one famous BTW.
Though my great great grandparents on my mother's side donated what is now a state park to the state of Texas.

Hines Ward.

Grew up in the same apt complex and went to elementary, middle, and high school together. He practically lived at my house and we played all kinds of sports together.
