And the saddest part? I get it. And think it's funny.
by the way - Linus lived down the street from me for a while.

Let's see. Famous people. Hmmm....
I'm related to what's his name who wrote the whatchamadingy book. And I shook So-and-So's hand once. And one of the Whozit's cousins used to live in my ward. And once, about 30 years ago, I met the singer from that great movie, at a wedding reception, when his sister married a friend of mine. Since we all thought the friend would never get married, it was a momentous occasion.
I guess I don't know very many famous people. Just politicians.

Runtu,
Does it have to be our own first hand account? Well...here we go...
1. I saw Patrick Wayne (John's son) in Dallas airport.
2. A family friend went to high school with Sinatra.
3. Another acquaintance went to high school with Martha Stewart.
4. I saw and talked to Ty Pennington from Extreme Makeover (ladies, he's hotter than a fire cracker in person!)
5. I met harmony!
If I can think of any more....I'll let ya know!

My best friend's dad was a famous baseball player. I met Todd Christensen after one of those "super firesides" in the 80's. He played tight end for the Raiders. I met Fred Roberts (an NBA player for the Milwaukee Bucks) after a Kings game. He was somehow related to my priest's quorum advisor.

Oh yeah - and Don Larsen (pitched the only perfect game in the World Series, for you philistines) once yelled at me for running the stop sign in front of his house.
