I thought all celebs were skinny - Why would one need to come here???

Boonie. I'm confused. I thought you were a celebrity.

I saw Ronnie Coleman (Mr. Olympia) working out at my gym. It must have been some kinda contest thing, he was training with some skinny kid and ET Canada was there taping it.

My dad was the captian of Paul Coffee's hocky team (when they were kids) and played at Wayne Gretzky's house.

Appatently my Boss's sister is on T.V. - The weather person or something - but I've never met her (or seen her on TV either for that matter).

Thanks, it is amazing how 2 totally different people can connect. I'm from Alabama, originally, she is from England. We met through a Methodist singles group many moon ago. Totally was meant for it to happen. Imagine that, didn't even need the computer to connect.

I'm afraid to say this, but I've met far too many celebrities. In my 20's, I hung out the hottest nightclub in town (First Avenue - remember the nightclub in Purple Rain? That's the one) and met every important rock star of the day in the 1980's (David Bowie, Tina Turner, The Replacements, The Cure, OMD, Depeche Mode, Crowded House, etc.). I also had a radio show and interviewed a boatload of folks.

In the 1990's through 2002, I was a massage therapist and had a booming business in TV and movies. I have literally had my hands on many of the best and brightest of the Industry. Some of them were really really nice and some of them were deeply deeply disturbed!! Oh well, it was fun while it lasted!

Now, I live in Santa Monica and see more folks than I would like. Meg Ryan thought I was stalking here (I was just going into the same store, for pity's sake!). But only one has made my knees goes weak - Gorgeous George, Clooney that is! Saw him at a restaurant in the San Fernando Valley. I practically dropped down on my knees and started babbling like an idiot. Unbelievably good looking. Sigh.

Me? I am no celebrity, but I can shop like one!

I went to the same college as Bill Murray in 1968. He had the very same dry sense of humor then as he does in all of his movies. Kooky, that's for sure!
