I'm surprised this somehow hasn't turned into Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon.

At the University of Kentucky hospital, I met Dr. Story Musgrave (also, astronaut), who served as an advisor on "Apollo 13," which starred Kevin Bacon.

My wife, Debi and son, "coppertop" were in the 30,000+ crowd at the Bush rally in Poplar Bluff, MO yesterday (about 10 yards out, in front of the podium)...does that count?

I was a childhood friend of Peyton, Eli and Cooper Manning. I lived next door to there grandma. I told Archie Manning to get out of my yard when he was QB for the Saints when I was 5. I helped rescue a downed AF pilot in Bosnia in 1995. I saved the AF 15 million bucks a year and got a whoo hoo achievemnt medal. I met Ted williams, but asked for the local sports guy Johnny Cascio's autograph. I had a baseball from Nolan Ryans no hitter and used it in the backyard. SO I am pretty darn famous or infamous. Depends on how you look at it.

Well,
LOL...I have been in 'Mustang Monthly' twice in the last 2 years,considered a "source" for 1968 Mustang information and I'm known 'Around the World as the Moderator of a forum similar to this where "everyone knows your name".

And I'm a Bowler having my name in the local newespaper 12 times (who's counting) for 250+ games last year.

I don't know Kevin Bacon,but I do like bacon with my eggs and toast.

I met Alan Sheapard at my Doctors office one day as he,my doctor,once worked for NASA.

Well to sum it up,I'm a "good ol' boy' who likes hotrods and bowling,,if I lived in a Trailer Park I "might be a redneck"..LOL

I helped Burt Reynolds sign autographs once at a FSU homecoming football game-he went to school and played football there.GO NOLES!!!

I used to work with Alan Shepherd. We called him Admiral at the office. I also went on a double date where his daughter was the other girl and my date was the daughter of the University of Houston president.

I dated the daughter of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Florida.

I went to school with and partied with Bob Wuhl-Arliss in the HBO series of that name. You will not ever know what his nickname for me was!!! :oops:

But the question is are there any famous people on this board? I haven't seen any "legitimate" famous people speak up.

Ok, so I'm contributing to the non-famous people who are posting... But I'm the daughter of someone sorta famous... My dad invented the board game "Sequence."

#33 Postby **azskyman** » Sun Sep 12, 2004 9:53 pm

Aha! Thank your dad for us! Sequence is a great game for those without a ton of time, wanting some conversation in between, and an hour or two of enjoyment among friends.

I met Lassie when I was working along I-90 in Illinois at one of the gas stations there...also Bo Diddly...neither of which will mean "diddly" to you young 'ens out there!

Since this topic is still around, I will add that I met George Clooney's parents, several times years ago at the doctor's office I worked at. Nina and Nick Clooney are such nice people! Let's just say my fellow coworkers and I were always impressed with them and enjoyed the many conversations we had with them. In fact, Nick never took a seat in the waiting room, he'd sign in, as if we didn't know his name (he was a celeb back then on a local level) but rather he'd talk to all of us and we were mere peons! Peons I tell ya.....it's no stretch of the imagination where George gets his good looks from and his charming personality. Can you tell I'm a George Clooney fan? LOL
