From: DETROIT, (formerly Eaton County, Michigan)
I shook hands with President Bush

I met all of Marilyn Manson' s band before they became popular at a haunted house in Detroit, they were signing autographs.

I've met all the MSU football and Basketball and Hockey players since '98 to present.

I've met Kid Rock, talk to him for about 2 minutes, at a Bar in Detroit.

I met Renhquist and had lunch with him. (US Supreme Court)

I met Holyfield at Mt. Brighton and gave him a ski lesson (I'm a ski instructor)

I think that is about it.

Back in my former life as a local Denver rock guitarist, I had the pleasure of playing Foosball with the guys from Metalica.

I met Zakk Wylde, Geezer Butler, and Randy Castillo (Ozzy's Band at one time), and watched them blow the roof off the bar by storming the band that was playing there that night and taking over the stage and equipment. That was about the best live performance I've ever witnessed. (No Ozzy, just the band with Zakk singing.)

I had the dis-pleasure of meeting Queensryche. What a bunch of ying yangs.

Met Sammy Davis Jr. and Jimmy Conner when I was a kid.

Met Shannon Sharpe in a coin store once. He was absolutely the nicest Pro Football player I've ever met.

John Elway was the RUDEST, most self centered man I've ever met. I quit going to the training camps after meeting him. What a creep. (Most excellent quarterback though.)

Two of my favorites was meeting Awsome Bill from Dawsonville, and General Stormin Norman Swartzkoph.

A really nice guy was Sonny Shroyer, he played Deputy Enos on the Dukes of Hazard.. We had a long talk about the show and Daisy Duke.. MMMmmmm Daisy Duke

Johnny Rutherford , Mike Sidel from the weather channel, former congressman Bob Inglis , a long time ago Geoff Bodine, Daryl Waltrip , Ricky Rudd, Wadell Wilson and Rick Hendricks at one of Ricks car lots.

One of the most fun was getting whacked with a piece of leather by Kylie Ireland,, poor old innocent me ,I was just sitting there drinking a beer.

If you're going to Bangkok in Thailand, what's the use in going?
