Just this past october on my birthday well me 21st I got to meet ANTONIO DANIELS #33 of the World champion San Antonio spurs. It was awesome. I actually met him at a club in San Antonio and he was really cool. He talked to me and my friends and he gave me a hug and told me happy birthday. It made my night I had to call and tell everyone I knew. I love watching him play basketball...

Okay, I would have LAUGHED at Richard Simmons. That would have been entirely too upsetting and laughable at the same time. Yikes! Sequinned shorts? Whoa.

Where did you see Britney and Justin? They were in my town (Destin) and ended up getting robbed and stalked by a bunch of 14 year old girls.

Haha yeah, Richard Simmons was quite a pill...me and my brother were standing around waiting on a taxi and he gets out of a Jeep Cherokee and grabs my brother (this is very early in the morning) and tells him he shouldnt drink mt dew that it was bad for him - I personally think he was just flirting with my bro (who is married).

I saw Justin & Britney in Destin - which might I add is the best beach - so beautiful - but I wasnt close enough to say hello - I would have had to scream it, and then I would have looked like a psycho.

When I did the news show here in Edmond, OK, I interviewed MSNBC's Bob Arnot (a foriegn correspondant).

Was an excellent interview.

Liv Tyler (I was in her apartment twice, and the second time I spoke with her for over an hour while I did an installation. Aside from the fact that she smokes, she is almost perfect.)
Joan Collins (sold her a Loewe TV; very nice person)
Joe Montana (dropped in the store; really nice guy)
Carol Burnett (one of the nicest people you'll ever meet)
Roy Jacuzzi (when I rung up his sale, I saw his last name. I ask him, "are you the Jacuzzi in Jacuzzi?" He was. I was more impressed with him than anyone else because he turned his name into the name of a product category, like Kleenex or Xerox.)
Spike Lee (gruff personality)
John Avildson (I went to high school with his son)
part of Phish (I went to high school with 2 of them)
Tico Torres (sold him a plasma panel; great guy)
Greg Anthony (Nice guy)
Phil McConkey (You would never know that he caught a TD in a Super Bowl; regular nice guy)
Halle Berry (prettier in real life than in the movies or on TV, but sort of weird)
Heather Locklear (nice, but with a slightly sarcastic edge. Prettier on camera, but still pretty. Body is much hotter in person than on camera.)
Sandra Bullock (nice, but she was rushed at the time)
Ted Danson (very guarded)
Charlie Rose (this is one of the nicest guys that you'll ever meet)
Rudy Giuliani (very guarded at first, but very nice guy. Also, very sharp mind)
George Pataki (very nice and easy going)

Off the top of my head, that's it for now.

I personally know Edwin McCain because his dad was my pediatrician. At first, when Ed became famous, I was kind of ditzy and didn't make the connection even though Edwin is from Greenville, SC and so am I and my pediatrician, Dr. McCain, practiced in Greenville before he retired in June. I finally met him and we've hung out on several occasions. He's really a nice guy. He'll crack you up.

If anyone knows who I am talking about...JOSH KELLEY is one of my best friends...he sings that song "Amazing"

THEO from road rules was his road manager for a while and is also a good friend of mine. He is a quirky guy.

And for all you Texans...Cory Morrow is also a good friend of mine. He's a lot of fun.

I met Candace Cameron back when Full House was on primetime. She was doing an autograph signing at a local mall.

I have also met Nelly and the St. Lunatics. I was at lunch with my co-workers and our Supervisor said jokingly that the truck that drove by was Nelly's. We just laughed and sat down to eat. Not ten minutes later, we heard some noise from the entrance and turned around. In walked Nelly and the entire Lunatic crew. It was awesome. I got Nelly and Ali's autograph. I also found out that one of my co-workers was Ali's lil bro for basketball (in other words, they went to the same high school and were on the basketball team together)--at least that's what Jon told us.

Also, my dad used to work at a tire shop that Nelly and all of the Lunatics took their cars to get wheels for their cars. Well, my dad called me one night and asked me if I could come to the shop because Nelly was up there. I got my mom and we went up there. It was really cool. I sat down and had an actual conversation with him that wasn't just about his music. He's a really cool guy. I have more respect for him since I have met him and talked with him. I don't care what other people think of him or say about him. He's a nice guy.

I have been on the same plane as John T. Madden (MNF broadcaster), but I didn't meet him. I can't think if I have met anyone else.

Met three famous astronauts... the late Alan Shepard (Freedom 7, Apollo 14), Jim Lovell (Gemini 7, 12, Apollo 8 and 13) and Bod Crippen (STS-1).

She signed my calendar and wrote she loved me on it. Beat that.
