Well, when I was younger I went to a get-together with close family friends and thier family. I walked in and sat down on the coach to watch TV (that was on). This whiteheaded/bearded man was sitting there and I turned to ask him if he wanted me to change the channel. He asked if a game was on, so I flipped the channels untill I found it. he and I started talking about "stuff" as if I was an old friend. I got up to get us something cold to drink when my mother pulled me a side and informed me I had been talking to "Uncle Jessie" I was like "oh that's his name", she said "No, his name is Denver Pyle, he played Uncle Jessie on that show you loved when you where little." "Dukes of hazard?" "Yes that's it!" He was a very nice man, I shed a tear when I heard of his passing. I was at a hotel bar in Dallas when I ran into James Dohan (Scotty from Star Trek). He sat down next to me at the bar and we made small talk. He said he was intown for a Trek convention. Nice man, he sure can hold his "wee bairns" (Star trek refference). My band, Outhouse Moan, played with the legandary Texas psychedelic band, the Golden Dawn twice. Very nice bunch of guys...good grass. My college frat brother moved to San Diego a few years ago. One night we went to a goth bar with some friends and bumped into and hung out with his childhood idol. Luke Skywalker. WEE BAIRNS
