Sat next to H. Ross Perot at a steak cookout at a ranch in Texas. The company I worked for was entertaining a number of people who had invested in wells it was drilling.

Played roulette at the Wynn for a few hours with Mel Gibson. Dude looked cracked out and told this crazy joke with the punchline being some dead x girlfriends in his backyard. I don't remember the whole thing because I was hammered, but I think he was being serious in retrospect.

well, it's not much more than a handshake
got an autograph from Van Johnson, when I was a boy in NYC, leaving my cousins place with folks, just walkin along
I have no idea where the autograph got to...didn't make it a habit of saving those...

I ate at Ruth's Chris with Guy Sebastian in New York. The guy was super down to earth, we talked for nearly two hours
That's awesome. I'm actually a big fan of his and was hoping he made it big here in the US. Did you know of him before or meet him there?

Also, for the wrestling guys, back in early 2000s went to some Mexican restaurant in Atlanta and saw two or three huge dudes carry out someone so hammered they couldn't walk. I noticed it was Buff Bagwell. I yelled "Buff's the stuff" at him as he left and he mumbled something at me but it could've been cursing at me. Lol

Sat in a hot-tub with Rob Lowe and family for nearly an hour in Mexico. We talked politics. Got to tell him how much I loved the movie "Class".
I ate dinner with Dwayne Bowe. Kid could put away some fried shrimp.
