This has got me thinking- most of my encounters are fairly pathetic.

Just last week, however I met Steven Colbert from the Daily Show and that rocked my world. He is so brilliant.

About four years ago I was driving to work in Marin and I got stuck behind a jackass in a big BMW. There was no traffic, but he was in the fast lane going slow as hell, looking in the mirror, picking his nose, etc. I don't normally do this kind of stuff, but I decided to let him have it. I gunned up along side of him and rolled down my window to yell, "Move over jackass!" at him. When I got the window down and stuck my head out, he looked at me at it was George Lucas. So I went "eek!" and just let it go. It was before I would have had the opportunity to scream, "Phantom Menace sucked!".

Met Patrick Stewart once, who was very nice. No- not at a convention.

Met the Greg himself, Barry Williams, at a book signing in Torrance years ago. Nice guy.

I really almost lost my shit last year meeting Johnny Marr backstage. He's so very short. But I was totally awestruck.

Plus Gorilla X humped my leg last week.
