    None of you can possibly top that.

    Can I get a witness?

    Either Joan Jett, the entire band, Buckcherry, or Gallagher, the comedian.

    I don't know who's the most famous.

    I didn't MEET him, but I yelled "Free Bird!" at a David Allan Coe concert once and he stopped and said, "Hey, you got the wrong guy."

    ...Does that count?

    I was a guest of Tony Gwynn at his Baseball HoF induction so I got to meet all the hall of famers. Pretty cool.

    I've also met Ed, Michael Jordan, Willie Nelson, John Elway, Joe Namath, Dan Marino, Jim James, and I went to HS with Drew Brees.
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    Glad I could make somebody smile, but what's the preposterous ponderings thread? I'm new.

    Oh shit....I said in my earlier post I felt like I was leaving somebody out....won't carry much weight here of course but I was good friends with country singer Randy (formerly Shawn) Houser in college. Pretty cool dude. We use to sit around drinking playing and singing some SRV back in the day....he told me I should take voice lessons because he thought i could sing.
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    Joe DiMaggio (months before he passed away, he was at a golf course)
