Guest guest Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 The only famous people I have run into are Dennehey. I can't spell that correctly. He was in restaurant in Olympia, Washington. My kids did marketing for Stars on Ice for 4 years so I got signed pictures, books, programs and free tickets for five years running. They came home with the coolest pictures they took of the skaters, golfing, playing paint ball, playing volleyball on the beach. One of my sons was on y Hamilton's golf team and he came home with an autographed picture and special message from y. Kristi Yamaguchi sent me a birthday present book with an inscription. This Saturday I am going to a benefit dinner and I get to meet Jay Leno. I wasn't going to go because the tickets are $300 each and I am saving in case I have to self-pay for surgery. $600 for both of us would be a more than I would like to pay for that. Then some benefactor (unknown) paid for my tickets. I almost forgot I also got to see Neil Diamond. We got the red carpet treatment because my kids' boss is his tour marketing manager. Believe me when you have bad knees that was a god-send. They didn't even check my purse when I went through the doors. There was a three block line and everyone else got checked. I felt special for about 10 minutes. The kids have gone on tour with Earth, Wind, and Fire, Hooba Stank, Elvis Costello, and one of them is going on tour with Lincoln Park in April. I think those are all " teenybopper " bands. Marla in Denver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 I grew up in a small Delta town called Walnut Grove, CA. Locke, Ca was about 2 miles from my home. Our town was a great place for movies to be filmed. I met Widmark, Powers, the man who is on Crossing Jordan (Jordan's dad) I was an extra in the movie Bound for Glory staring Ronnie and Carridine, met and worked with them. I wore a dress and a purse and I was not cut from the movie. I met Nicolas Cage in San Francisco. My Aunt who lives in Reno and is a hypnotist has met many stars over the years and sometimes we were lucky to be visiting when they were around. I am getting ready to take classes for comedy so I could be a star some day.... then we can say we met. Hope I didn't bore anyone. Kind regards, Kinsey with the prayers being answered here in Sacramento I was given more time to find a place to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
