I have a link over there -----> on the right -----> entitled "Famous People I Have Met."
DON'T CLICK ON IT YET.
I have to tell you something first. Then you can read it.
I made the list because I have been really lucky to have met an awful lot of famous people in my work. A LOT. And it's kind of cool when you think about it. I didn't make it to brag. Because I'm not bragging. I hate braggers (braggerts?). I'm also not trying to name drop. Because, as I pointed out, it's not like any of these people remember meeting ME. I'm not saying I could pick up the phone and call one of them on their cell. I'm just saying, "Look how lucky I've been to have met such an assortment of interesting people." "Who are famous."
So I made the list & I stuck a link over there -----> on the right ----->. But I didn't say anything about it being there or write a post about it. Then I got a comment in my email from someone named Daffy Man!! [with the !!] and he said, "That would be cool if you had photos to post, too." And I do. I have photos with a lot of these people. Not all of them, but a lot of them. And I agree, Daffy Man!!, that would be cool to post. Cool, but practically imposible as I wouldn't begin to know where to find any of those photos anymore.
So in lieu of posting photos with my celebrity friends, I wrote a line or two about my impression of them. It's not exactly US Weekly-quality stuff, but you might find it moderately entertaining.
That's it. Go ---------->

I love Cindy Crawford, and I noted your impression of her was "rather quiet". Any other thoughts? Just curious. I remember her from the 90s when she was THE super model and had those Pepsi commercials.
uhh...extremely photogenic? That kind of goes without saying, doesn't it?
Cindy's visit was a media opp, so she was dressed in - and I'm not kidding about this - leather pants and a sweater, with her hair and make up perfect. She was so beautiful she looked airbrushed.
Her thighs were like the size of my calves.
Like Robin Williams, she was always "on" but in a supermodel sort of way. Every single photograph snapped of her that day was exquisite.
But she was rather quiet. Some people react that way to kids with cancer I guess. But she didn't really talk a lot.
That's friggin' awesome. I am totally in awe of you now.
What do you do that you've met these people?
And can I say, my personal favorite was Terry Semel - expects you to know who he is. Because I totally don't. Who the hell is he/she?
I'm in PR. I did PR for a famous childhood cancer hospital for 8 years. That's where most of my meetings happened.
Terry Semel is the (or was the?) CEO of Yahoo.com. I KNOW, RIGHT???
Cool! Thanks for the added info on Cindy Crawford. I remember that her younger brother died of leukemia.
