My best friend's mom was Pat Monahan's second grade teacher. (Oh, yeah, I met him too.) He's the frontman of the band Train. He's a really big deal around here, but then we don't have all that many home-grown celebrities. My elementary school best friend's dad used to be good friends and co-workers with former PA governer and National Security Advisor Tom Ridge. I walked next to him in a local charity walk one time (and, oddly enough, my brother ran next to Pat Monahan in another charity event just a couple years ago...).

That Announcer said:
I do think that Davy Jones is great, but he's not my favorite Monkee by a long shot. That honor is reserved for Mike Nesmith.

Oh, and I've got one that can top all yours. My aunt used to date Peter Tork!
Michael Nesmith & Peter Tork are my favs. too.I did see Mickey & Peter at an autograph signing,though because they came late,I was unable to see them up close(so to speak).Michael and Peter are the best,both in their musical talents & their humanity.I got to see Davy in person,due to the fact,he was the only one of the 4 that's done a book-signing(I took a nice in-your-face pic of him too,which I still have).

While I never met them: my Aunt works with Gary Talent's sister (Gary Talent is the bass player for Bruce Springsteen's E Street band) and my grandmother was good friend's with Jack Nicholson's parents.

A few years ago, I met this pop signer named "Krystal", I think that's how you spell it... she was very nice, and I got her autograph. I remember one time I saw someone, and missed a chance to talk to them, but my memory is escaping me as to who it was. :sleep:

I've met both former NBC news anchor Tom Brokaw, and current news anchor Brian Williams. My sister was a recipient of the Make A Wish Foundation back in 2003 and her wish was to meet Tom Brokaw....Brian Williams was an unexpected bonus. Both are very kind and considerate gentlemen!
