As Joe said, I had the pleasure of meeting Alan Alda in October of 2007. I've also met Dr. James Dobson of Focus on the Family, Billy Graham and former Miss Alabama Heather Whitestone, who won Miss America in 1995, the first Miss America winner with a disability.

I hope to attend some conventions and meet more celebs in the future.

just remembered, YEARS AGO (Imust have been about 5 or 6-I'm 53 now) I saw Frank Fontaine. For Lauren and the other "young bucks" out there

Frank Fontaine was an actor/comedian/singer who used to do a character named Crazy Guggenhime on "THE JACKIE GLEASON SHOW".

Meeting Alan Alda:

I see you're a little "star-struck"

LuLu Rogers · 03-21-2010, 04:57 AM

Yes, I was shaking like a leaf! Luckily my friend Brittany agreed to go with me, she took the pictures and kept me from sounding like a bumbling idiot when I finally got to talk to Alan, LOL.

Torgo · 03-21-2010, 11:38 AM

Outside of conventions/appearances/book signings:

Majel Barrett and Richard Kiel a few years ago when I took my family down to visit one of my sisters when she and her family lived in California. My sister shopped at the same grocery store as Barrett.

Juliana Hatfield - She was performing with The Lemonheads at Satyricon in Portland, OR. I was standing behind her when she was in line getting water at the bar and she turned and bumped me and spilled some of her water on me...I never dried that shirt again.

Dawn Wells at Powell Books in Portland, OR(she was there browsing books)

James Doohan at the Sea-Tac International Airport

MickeyMac · 03-21-2010, 02:22 PM
