yeah, she's super. I always trade up
That thing about Springer reminds me. In case you don't know, he used to be the Mayor of Cincinnati where I was growing up. Then he bounced a check on a hooker and he resigned.
Then he became the anchor man on the local nightly news. So I grew up with him always on the news signing off with that take care of yourselves and each other.
George Clooney was also from the area (in fact we went to the same college), and his dad Nick Clooney was always on the News as a journalist and had a local collumn in the paper.
Once when I was in high school, I won an art and writing award, and Gearge Clooney presented it to me and read my introduction and bio about my art work at some press event and dinner.
It only seems weird now when I see Springer and Clooney on TV. |

In the same vein...
I totally stuffed a basketball on a guy in highschool... the only time I EVER played basketball with them... everyone else made fun of him for weeks because the "freak" schooled him...

No nudes here
But you can see some photos and paintings I made of her in Reflections #2.
And some of my favorite figure studies of Anh in Reflections #4. |

Ok, here's a real one, I've been in Vegas, hanging out with CSI's William Peterson, a few years before the TV show began.
I got to know him when I worked at the all-sports station in chicago.
He's the most down to earth famous guy I've ever met.
When he told me CBS wanted to do a show with him, he said he wanted to remake HAVE GUN WILL TRAVEL, but CBS wouldn't let him because the Magnificent Seven remake they did was a ratings bomb.
He said he wanted to call CSI "The Criminalist"???!!!
I still blow him shit about that.
He really likes the IDW comic book |

Not really weird, but I knocked Gweneth Paltrow on her ass.
....accidentaly, I was a bit drunk.
Jumped on stage and slammed Flea while he was trying to play, he wasn't happy, but that was long before he was a celebrity.
....coincidentaly I was drunk, again.
I seem to be rather abusive to celebrities. |

I once flabbergasted Harlan Ellison.
He was doing a reading/signing at Powell's, and after he signed my stuff, I shook his hand and told him that meeting him was "a rare honor and an extraordinary privilage."
He tells me, "Well, thank you for sharing your emotions in public like that."
And I responded, "Well, thank you for thanking me for sharing my emotions in public like that."
While he was struggling to form a coherent word, I got the hell out of there. _________________ You fuckers think just because a guy reads comics he can't start some shit? |

I worked in radio for 17 years, and got to meet lots of musicians (mainly country music stars), wrestlers and authors.
Some of the more memorable events included my wife and I hanging out back stage with Neal McCoy. At the time, I was a big Bulls fan (Jordan was still with the team) and McCoy was a Jazz fan. It was the playoffs, and he wasn't too pleased with me before he went on stage because I let him know what a Bulls fan I was.
Got busted by the wife while interviewing twin sisters The Kinleys. They were wearing hip huggers, backless shirts and it was 90 degrees.
Later that same night, my then 2 year old kid hung out with singer Trace Adkin's 2 year old daughter, while we made sure he didn't hurt her and the singer would then sue us...
Once talked to Don McClean ("American Pie") on the phone. Embarrassed him when I didn't believe he was who he said he was and I sang the first few verses of the song to him over the phone.
Got to know author Steve Alten and he wrote my son into his latest novel Resurrection as an assassin, and next month I get written into his third giant shark novel Primal Waters. I get an entire chapter before I end up as shark bait.
However, my favorite "celeb" moment was when wrestler/commentator Jerry "The King" Lawler came to town. I had spent all morning trashing the guy on the radio, saying what I would do if I met him. Little did I know he had been listening all day. The King called me out and I found myself involved in a somewhat frightening wrestling shoot that everyone but me was in on. I got dissed on the air with the classics "I've seen more guts on a skeleton" and "You have the face for radio." It was only as we cut to a commercial break...as a steel chair was heading for my head...that I realized Lawler was just putting on a very good show! _________________ The Fan Man!
