Just curious.....
I know a lot of you have seen / met Lisa Whelchel through her whole book thing over the past year, but other then in that situation, has anyone seen any other FOL people in real life? I read that thing about John Lawlor being someones sub. so that got me thinking, has anyone ever had like a Nancy, Kim, Mindy.....sighting?

In the 80s I was a waiter at a restaurant at Universal Studios and waited on quite a few stars. Facts of Life must have taped there at least for a season or so. Anyway, one day I waited on Mindy and Kim at a table with a few other people. They were extremely nice and as I remember the tip was good too.

In Disney World, there was this girl in the seat in front of us on Splash Mountain who sounded like Midly and looked EXACTLY like her from the side. Then I saw her from the front. I was seriously getting ready to ask her if I could take a picture of her. But she didnt look like her from the front.

Stephanie Powers, the entire Still the Beaver cast, David Hasselhoff had one of his wedding receptions there, Drew Barrymore right after ET having a birthday party hosted by her mother, The Bionic Woman (Lindsay Wagner), Valerie Bertinelli and others from the One Day at a Time cast, AND Stephen Speilberg was the biggest. (Management made me nervous about that one, asking me if everything was ok every 2 seconds). He was having lunch with Universal bigwigs shortly after ET.

At a night club on Sunset Blvd in the 70s (before I worked at Universal), I waited on Rod Serling (that was an honor) ( I remember he drank Scotch), Lana Turner (she was old and weird by then) and Olivia Newton-John. I kept the wine glass that Lana Turner drank out of until I broke it!

Wow! That is so cool! That's all I can think of to say, so, again, cool!

I only met Lisa.

Wait a minute- I ONLY met Lisa? I wonder why that 'only' is in there... she's all I've ever wanted to meet...oh well. Wasn't it Sarah Lynn who met Kim Fields?

She wouldn't go unnoticed if I saw her in the mall...I may not be a Nancy McKeon FREAK, but she a terrific actress and there's no way I woudl pass up a chance to tell her that.(Plus, she worked with Char.

)

I wish she'd come to the mall here! OK, I'd probably be the only one who even knew who she was, but I would...thats the point!
