Friday Five: Brushes with Greatness

Reverendmother here...

In the coming days, I'll be meeting my creative/artistic role model--a singer-songwriter who has been a part of my spiritual journey for some 10 years now. I'm psyched!

David Letterman used to have a feature on his show called "Brushes with Greatness." Members of the audience would share stories of encounters with famous people. And so...

1. Tell us about a time you met someone famous.

2. Tell us about a celebrity you'd like to meet.

3. Tell us about someone great who's *not* famous that you think everyone oughta have a chance to meet.

4. Do you have any autographs of famous people?

5. If you were to become famous, what would you want to become famous for?

Bonus: Whose 15 minutes of fame was up long, long ago?

As always, let us know if you play. Here's the code to link directly:

    Friends, Blogger seems to be experiencing something along the lines of rolling blackouts, so don't be surprised if you can't get through to a link. Just try later. Thanks!

    Hello, fabulous folks! Great topic. Love the entries thus far! (Also *heart* the cat pic, and boy, do we agree on the grating Paris or what?!)
    My goofy take is up!

    I envy all you all who have had brushes with greatness. Who know greatness. I wracked my brain and could not come up with one person. Nope not one. I sure live a boring life here in AL.
    Sigh.
