    ....and more politicians...

    My dad's side of the family are musicians that have become good friends with the musicians listed. There are also political people in my family as well so of course they all hobnob at the same gathering as the politicians and some come to visit during family gatherings.

    Steven segal he was with some exec's scoping area's of Alaska for I can't remember which movie. Guy was a real prick. I threw away the pics I got with him because he was such a dick. my girlfriend at the time was a possible female lead in the movie and had dinner with him at my girls house. Snoop dog was at Disneyland about 6 yrs ago on his wife's birth day and his entourage buzzed him and his wife right by me and my family. Could not talk with him but he walked 5' from where I was walking the path. Going through San Fran airport, I cannot remember his name but positive he was a porn star. Made small talk with him while getting coffee. Last year I was in st. Paul island, during the deadliest catch crabbing season and went on the Cornelia Marie, time bandit. Met with most of the captains and crew but they were so busy working they didn't really have time for us. All of them cool as shit, down to earth people. I also caught a glimpse of president George W Bush Sr. Walking into the terminal at EAFB but was from a couple hundred yards away.

    In 1993 at the height of his fame I was letting my year old nephew run around in the airport and he ran right into..........M.C. HAMMER, he had his huge entourage with him. He was pretty cool about it I don't even remember what he said it's been so long

    I met Richard Petty. We were walking around the inner rack at Dover and came up on a port-a-potty. The door swung open and King Richard stepped out, hat, glasses and all. We kinda stopped and looked and he thrust his hand out and said "How ya'll boys doin' today?" My first thought was the he likely did not his hands, but got over it, shook the mans hand and had a little conversation with him. He wished us a good day and off he went. Nice guy.
