Well, going to college in Malibu meant I had many brushes with the famous.

- Waved at Axl Rose while we were sitting next to each other at a traffic light on PCH - he waved back.
- When wildfires came into town in '96 and many of us evacuated from campus, ARNOLD was out directing traffic on PCH, his Hummer parked on the side of the road.
- I once had a conversation with Gabrielle Reece while in line at Blockbuster.
- I stood in line behind Pierce Brosnan at Sav-On - he was buying cat food, on sale.
- I saw Matt Leblanc (Joey from Friends) shopping at Ralphs, and he was putting a ton of those treated fire logs into his cart.
- I walked right past (seriously, inches away from) Kurt Russell, who was in our student center with his teen son and arguing with him over what he wanted out of the vending machine.
- Pam Anderson is a big Pepperdine Waves baseball fan and came to most of the home games.
- Madonna used to sometimes jog around our track - I have a photo of her from far away.
- Some friends and I ate breakfast at one of our favorite cafes, Marmalade, at the table next to Jane Krakowsky and Melina Kanakaredes.
- Tia and Tamara Mowery (Sister Sister) were in a couple of my college classes.
- I went to college with Fabian B. (Filthy Rich Cattle Drive) and a number of girls in my chapter were good friends of his, so he was around a lot.
- I went to high school with a girl from Survivor who was the first one to be kicked off her season.
- I met A-Rod and a number of other Seattle Mariners back when they still played here.
- Since Ken Starr is now the Pepperdine law school dean, I met him at a talk he gave up here in Seattle recently.
- Tom Selleck was my graduation speaker!

Those are the ones I can think of right now, though I think very few of these can be called "great"
