Got his autograph, too!Michelle Obama. At a different place than where I met Barack, oddly enough.Oprah: Got to shake her hand. She was pretty polite.Tim Russert: Dude was awesome. So ya, post some of your encounters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabris Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 A completely arbitrary list of "famous" people follows: - Manny Pacquiao, considered the greatest pound-for-pound boxer of this era, two weeks before his fight against Hatton. - John Zorn, one of the most prolific jazzmen of our time, though we never really had a conversation. - A half-drunk Carlos Santana, hyperhyped guitarist of his era, in Acapulco last year. I've no idea what he was doing there. - Kyo, lead singer of oft-hyped band dir en grey. Got a few minutes to talk with him - then pissed him off. - Nora Aunor, famous local actress, in San Francisco, on her birthday last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They where playin a little spring fun game at this small park. I just happened to be practicing by myself before they got there. They asked if they could use the field (Yes..they asked..polite o.0). They even let me join in. Was..wierd..cuz that was when I was first starting to really get into playing the game, so..they gave me practice pointers and everything.And no, Ichiro was NOT there.Other than that..uh..Nothing I can think of right now..I'll prob remember one soon enough tho..just my luck..I do wanna meet Marilyn Masnon tho..
