Re: Post your interesting/funny brushes with fame here
Nicholas Cage backed into my wife at the LV counter in Beverly Hills.
When I was young, my family saw Gallagher at Universal Studios in Florida. My dad stopped him for a photo and I think my sister was in the photo with him. My mom said "oh, that's nice he brought his daughter". "That's not his daughter" - my dad. He also smelled like alcohol at 10 AM.
At the Miami airport waiting for my sister in law to arrive. I see a woman in a sea of Brazilians that doesn't look very Brazilian and she's pretty tall. My wife starts breathing heavy and almost jumping up and down. It's Xuxa. Former playmate, girlfriend of Pele, and kids game/talk show host in Brazil and pretty much a icon there. Wife got to have a few words with her and translate some things between the guard and her. Wife came back over to me and said "do you know how many letters I wrote her when I was a kid?".
I know I'm missing a couple ...
Auk's words to live by:
Blow up and pin a picture of M. Bartoli on your wall. When you achieve that position, stop. Until then, stretch, ride, stretch, ride, eat less, and ride more.
