Kris,
Is it sad that the only name in your list I recognize is Carrot Top?
My biggest celebrity run-in was meeting Jason Mewes (of Jay & Silent Bob fame) in court. I was there for a speeding ticket; he was there for shoplifting Legos. This was after he had been in multiple movies.
I definitely got his autograph -- right on my court notice. ^_^

Oh, I forgot my other celebrity run-in. I had dinner with Kris & Betsy (and Elliot & Maggie) in September of 2006. That was cool -- I even saw Slowski live.
I didn't get any autographs or swag, but the Croncast sticker wasn't out yet.

In my job as a funeral director I helped:
Mike Ness - lead singer of Social Distortion
Matthew Rogers - American Idol Finalist
Always weird when you don't recognize a celebrity until they tell you who they are.
LOL

I rode in an elevator once with Mohammed Ali before he became ill. He's a lot smaller in person than he looks on TV.

I once got a note, typed on an old timey typewriter, from John Kenneth Galbraith. But I don't get much face to face with anyone famous or not. @Margot were people mad at richard simmons about the cake? I would be. I'm mad just thinking of it. CAKE!

Hi Shirky, yes people were mad about their cake, that was when they served food on the plane! He was funny but annoying, he kept getting on the PA and shouting to the passengers and trying to get them to get up and exercise. His
