But when I was in junior high, Colin Powell's daughter and I were good friends. We played on the same softball team in Kansas, so I was at her house a few times. He was "just" a general then. (And a nice guy with a nice family!) <BR/><BR/>I also got to watch Shaquille O'Neal play high school basketball in Germany. We had a guy on our team who was 6' 10", and he was the tall guy on the Frankfurt team--our school's big rival. <BR/><BR/>These are the little perks of military life, I suppose!Nicole Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00059756219603011831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27552471.post-38387765910987438862008-03-16T05:30:00.000-07:002008-03-16T05:30:00.000-07:00Micol: Hmm.

I also got to hang out with an up-and-coming actress from Chicago, Jennifer Morrison, who's now starring as Allison in the popular "House."

And I didn't even notice him until one of my friends pointed him out.<BR/><BR/>And I basically started flipping out, and he must have saw me because he smiled at me and gave me a little wave. Awesome day, despite the PSAT.<BR/><BR/>And when we got back to campus, one of my friends who got out of her PSAT late was upset that she couldn't go to Baja with us. And more upset that we saw him because she was also a huge Gilmore Girls fan. And she drove there to see if he was still there, but he wasn't.<BR/><BR/>[And Dino de Laurentiis's daughter goes to school with me.

When I was in LA in the fall, I participated in the WGA strikers' march on Hollywood Blvd. I looked really hard for famous people, just out of curiosity. I saw Patton Oswalt, the guy who plays Felicity Huffman's husband on "Desperate Housewives" (so glad he wasn't killed in the tornado), and Sharon Lawrence, an actress I love to catch in whatever she's doing at the moment because she's so funny. I'm sure there were many more 'greats' that I didn't notice. I've also met the governor of our state (his wife hosted a writer's event I spoke at, and his family owns a restaurant that he sometimes comes to visit and speak with 'the masses' who are enjoying the stuffed shells and yummy sauce.<BR/><BR/>KellyKelly McClymerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04038223302234193266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27552471.post-65315661590219525792008-03-09T14:07:00.000-07:002008-03-09T14:07:00.000-07:00I feel unfairly handicapped in this challenge, bec...I feel unfairly handicapped in this challenge, because I can walk right by my husband if I'm not looking for him. However, my claim to fame is that I actually worked in an office with Kathleen Turner's younger sister (who was a grad student at the time...this was a looooooong time ago). The whole office was buzzing about it the night after Kathleen won the Oscar for Body Heat. As I recall, her sister was a total sweetie, but not even close to looking like her sister was going to be the sex symbol for the year.<BR/><BR/>KellyKelly McClymerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04038223302234193266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27552471.post-77728801761306148172008-03-09T10:32:00.000-07:002008-03-09T10:32:00.000-07:00I'd say gela and I are in a statistical tie.
