The only "celebrity" I have even been close to is Gail King, Oprah Winfrey's friend. She was a news anchor in Hartford, CT for awhile, and briefly had her own TV show............my girlfriend got us tickets to be part of the show. That's about it..........other than friends who have met and done work for the Newmans and Susan Lucci and Ivan Lendl.............

On my trip to Eastern Russian several years ago I was part of a Sister Cities delegation and we Alaskans hosted a major gathering prior to leaving Vladivostok. Michael Gorbochoff made a surprise visit that evening and personally spoke to each of the forty or so of us from Alaska, gave us each a hardy hug and thanked us for being party to the effort to bring our countries together. Have to admit, I was impressed with his personal demeanor, but like many Russian men, had an interesting "air" about him. a mixture of alcohol and lack of deodorant.

Okay, Chevy, I'm envious! All I get to meet are boring ol' lawyers. I did meet Tommy Reynolds (formerly of Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds) a few times when he lived in Dallas, and I knew a former (and now dead anyway) Governor of the Virgin Islands before he was the Gov -- Melvin Evans was his name. He was our family physician back in the 1960's, and not a very good one. He was far more interested in politics, and one night gave my mom so much medication (so he could stay at the posh party he was attending) that she overdosed and almost died. I remember her standing up in bed screaming that she wanted to die, that she was going to get a knife and do it right there, just before Dad got the ambulance out. Never thought much of Dr. Evans.
Oh, yeah, and I went to school with Victor Borge's kids for a couple of years. Nikki and I would trade lunches because she hated what their housekeeper fixed for her.
