Gosh, I've met a few celebrities, but was never mindful enough to get an autograph...

Under sixteen: I met Dr. Sanguinary of Creature Feature fame. My parents drove me to a local fish shop where he was hosting some kind of marathon so that I could meet him. Dang was he nice.

Rowdy Roddy Piper and Mad Dog Vshaun (sic) and another wrestler whose name slips my mind. My family were friends with a guy that knew them so we were able to meet them when they visited my dads friends. I think my brother got to "wrestle" with one of them.

Over sixteen: I lived in England for several years (five) and met Eliot Gould who was performing at our Air Force base. I met Barbara Streisand that same year who was working on Yentl, it was brief but I was starstruck. I met Adam Ant at Picadilly circus where he was doing an interview, all I can remember about that was telling him I loved how he did his hair which made him laugh. I met worzel Gummidge, who was played by Jon Pertwee of Dr. Who fame, and like others, I prefer Tom Baker myself. I also met Nick Mason of Pink Floyd while they were working up the movie The Wall, not really met, but we were in the same shop in London at the time and he was allowed to the front of the line right when it was my turn, and he asked if it was alright. I couldn't even talk, I just nodded, I wonder still if he noticed I had a Juice Newton album and a Rush 2112 album in my hand. I met Margaret Thatcher in London and there were hundreds of people there at #1 Downing Street hoping to see her and when she came past, she shook our hands. Such a strong woman for all of the things that had to be done.

And that's all that I know of. Now I have seen Warren Buffet a few times, we live in the same city, but never really "met" him. His aunt was quite famous here in Omaha and I've met her many times. I've also met Chip Davis and his group Mannheim Steamroller, they live and record here in Omaha.
