Meeting Celebs

Cal Ripken, Nancy Kerrigan, C. Everett Koop, Billy Graham and Sasha Cohen. All of them were friendly except for one of them but, I won't say who. ( Why me! Why!)

Iron Chef Morimoto! The greatest day of my life! I have a picture!

I'm sort of strange like that. I don't dig A list celebrities, but I LOVE C listers. Give me the choice between Sylvester Stallone and Frank Stallone and I'll choose Frank every time!

The Iron Chef is a Japanese show on the Food Network. They bring in top Chefs from around the world to compete against the Iron Chefs in Kitchen Stadium. They have 4 Iron Chefs that specialize in regional cusine. Iron Chef France, Italian, Japanese and America. The challeger chooses which Chef they want to battle in a cooking compitition. Iron Chef Morimoto was Iron Chef America, then he became the only Iron Chef. The show was really good and unintentionally funny, especially because it was dubbed in English like a Kung-Fu movie.

And there's a new version of the show filmed in the US with four new Iron Chefs
Whoever watches the food network would know them I doubt any other person would recognize these names.
Bobby Flay Southern, Mario Batali italian and Morimoto Japanese I think. They recently added a woman too I can only remember her name as Chef Cora.
One of the things that makes it even cooler is that Alton Brown is the commentator and he is a very funny guy.
By the way I love food network, cooking is one of my hobbies (it's not my job or anything but I dig it!)

Wolfgang Puck was also an Iron Chef in the first installment of Iron Chef America. I do not believe Morimoto is on Iron Chef America anymore.

I have met Faith Hill. She came to Jackson a year or two ago and I went to her concert. She's the Only Celebrity I've met so far.

The only celeb I've met was Judy Tenuda, the comedian. I drove her around town for a while. Very, very intelligent.

I also collect anecdotes from people who met John Wayne. I worked with a woman who was related to him (she said every meal he ate had to center around steak) and even went out a couple of times with his grandniece (didn't know it until the last date, though). Most of the celebs I'd like to meet are dead now.

as I'm a straight gal, I've met some male strippers. even had some pics taken with 'em! was tickled pink when some of those dudes turned up in PlayGirl. 'Cause I belong to the best Gay Club in my home town, I know quite a few of the drag queens. I've also had the pleasure of meeting both some past Mr. and Ms. Gay America's.

Just curious, tor, but what does a "straight" girl find of interest on a lesbian site??
I'm not judging at all.....just curious.

Only Fire House. I attended their concert here.

Interesting question, lopaw. I want to know the answer too.

In 1996, I met the trainer of the german national soccer team on a vacation in Florida. He was very reserved and said not one word I could understand - sounded something like "hmjahmhmda". Not a very impressive person, by the way.

He was fooled by his whole team for years because he had a very little role in a german tv show where he opened the door and was supposed to say "mein Kaninchen", but messed up even these two words and said "mein Kaminchen". His team called him "Kaminchen" from then on.
