Stephen Baldwin sideswiped a rental car I was in. He was doing a crazy 180 turnaround in the middle of a busy street in Park City during Sundance. He got out and everyone was laughing about it because everyone involved was in rentals.

Also saw Richard Simons in the airport once. You wanna know how richards simons dresses to get on a plane? Like he does every other time you see him, in shorts up to his arse cheeks and a tank top, all oiled up. it was gross.

Roughly chronologically..

Ran full speed into Lyle Alzado as a toddler in Denver. He was pretty nice to me, I'm told. I don't remember this.

Met the guy who screwed Rambo over in First Blood Part II. I was at a convention with my dad and he was there. They said the special guest was the star of First Blood, and I was pissed when it was that guy and not Sly.

Was introduced to Bruce Springsteen by Lloyd Bentsen in college. That was odd.

George Bush, Sr. called my brother to hire his band for a Houston gig, and I ended up sitting with him and his wife during the show. Mrs. Bush is very funny.

Tons of people at various Mardi Gras: Jim Kelly, Drew Carey, John Goodman, John Cusack, Neve Campbell.

When I was fifteen I had a slow dance (trying to conceal wood) with Julia Roberts. Only managed a kiss on the cheek though.

Ken Ober at Jazz Fest

Jack Russell lead singer of Great White at the Howling Wolf

Also met Kevn Kenny after an acoustic show at the Matador on Esplanade and Bourbon. I purchased a CD form him out of the trunk of his rental car. He asked my friend and his wife if they wanted one and my friends wife said, "I'll just copy his." KK has a WTF look on his face, lol.

Also saw Jay Farrar walking down the street in the Quarter with some skank hoe. Did not speak to him.

Hung out in the same suite for a saints game as Dustin Hoffman, Cliff Curtis, John Cusack. Spoke with all 3 too. Was a huge fan of Cusack at the time. Pretty star struck from Hoffman too.
They were taping Runaway Jury.


Walked out of One Shell Square and Cusack was sitting on the steps about 10 feet from me.

I jumped on the trampoline at his house in Newport Beach when I was a teenager. Also met Barry Goldwater at the same time.

You may get crucified for repping Sean Penn.

He's the most hated actor in TD history, I do believe.

Don't care. My maid's daughter was his maid when he filmed "All the King's Men" here. He rented my cousin's house and my wife was the agent on the deal. He paid for the maid to live for six months after Katrina and offered to pay for us. We declined. He sent her over 20k in a 6 month period. Sounds like a stand-up dude to me. Plus he broke my wife's car handle and gave her 500.00 bucks to pay for the repair.

He is a chain smoker like you wouldn't believe.

Actually, I do believe that.

I know, I was just messing.

I think Penn's a good dude, and really cares about the shite he does, unlike most celebrities who do it to win favor with the public.
