    I had lunch with Ivan Stewart.

    Well, he was standing next to me at the condiment table at the Italian sausage stand at Trucks at Carlisle. Stocky son of a bitch.

    Ron Paul (very good handshake), Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Stephen Colbert (also a very good handshake), Herman Caine, Anderson Cooper all in one weekend. George W. Bush, Lindsey Graham (refuse to shake his hand), Barack & Michelle Obama, JHodge, Brantley Gilbert (complete douche), Jason Aldean, Eric Church, Kenny Chesney(Previous 4 were before/after concerts), Sugar Land(right place at the right time). Partied with Charles Kelly at his home in Augusta, GA, the lead singer of Lady Antebellum, before they became famous. I'm sure there is more that I am forgetting.

    I met Carrol Shelby and his wife at the 100th anniversary of Rord in Dearborn. What a nice guy, he signed my badge and everything. Then his wife Cleo chatted me up for about 20 minutes. Really great people.

    I also met Frank from American pickers at a bar in Rochester once, he was a cool guy too, bought my buddy and I a beer!
