Have you ever met anyone famous? Does someone famous come from your hometown? Even if they're a local celebrity, tell us about it!

Why should our government send our soldiers to foreign soil to protect freedom of speech, when our freedom of speech is being taking away everyday by the same government.

Boris Becker, a german tennis star went to the same school as i do. actually he doesnt play anymore, but got notorious for having some illegal children :D

and... I regualry meet our school's principal as he lives not far away from me. "duck and coover" ;)

and well, yes, during our berlin-trip we actually went to the german "bundestag" (kinda parliament) and i saw Schröder and Fisher. Actually we sat above them, and with some luck i could have spit them on the face. i was shocked anyway that day, 2/3 of the politicians either read newspapers or played gameboy/handy. tsheesh

My old band, Savior Faire, opened up for Majesty which eventually became Dream Theatre. The guys bought us all a drink and hung out in the dressing room (although I think they got their drinks for free).

ioshee - I haven't seen her in years. If I do, I can probably get an autograph for you if you'd like. I'm sure she still remembers me.

arcuss - You lucky !@#$!@#%$# I hope Mrs. arcuss didn't get mad at you!


I met all the NY Islanders that have had their jersey #s retired (Mike Bossy #22, Bryan Trottier #19, Bob Nystrom #23, Clark Gillies #9, Denis Potvin #5 and of course the real Battlin' Billy Smith #31) and still have their autographs!
I also met the lead singer of Toad the Wet Sprocket (he's REALLY short, like under 5'). He was a cool guy and a big Monty Python fan (hence the band name).

DUDE! That was you Nemesis? I was the guy who used to come over to your house and make out with Natalie when she was supposed to be baby-sitting you.

I’m kidding of course. I don’t think I have ever met anyone famous. Not that I can remember anyway.

Billy I used to have a HUGE crush on Moira Kelly. Not any more but I still think she’s cool. I have “The Cutting Edge” on DVD and I watch it at least once every couple of months. I don’t know why I love that movie so much but I do. “Toe Pick”

I've met paul hendy (you have to be from UK to know who this is :D)
Dominic Wood from animal magic
Christian and Mark Churchill off of rad
Alan Davies (Jonathan Creek)
oh yeah, I once saw Robby Coltrane, they were filimg something down my street.

And my biggest claim to fame is probably meeting Chris Tarrant, his little girl and the little girl next door are best friends so he's been nextdoor a few times :D

Oh yeah also, Ronan Keating has a large mansion just down the road from me, but he's not always in there, its more of a gettaway house :)

I don't know if anyone's ever heard of her, but I went to HS with Moira Kelly, I used to welcome her to "my Bandroom" everyday and I got a kiss on the cheek from her after she was in her first couple of movies. As far as I know, this is what she's been in:

Payton Place (the newer ones)
The Cutting Edge (figure skating movie)
Chaplain (she was one of Chaplain's wives/girlfriends)
With Honors (never saw this one)
Billy Bathgate (didn't see this one either)

If you know who she is and think she's hot, her older sister is even hotter! My cousin was friends with her older sister.
