Nope! I'm still young so there's still a chance one of my old friends or classmates might be famous some day!

Jeff Andrulonis. He owns 4 radio stations in Pennsylvania and was a radio news jockey in Fayetteville, North Carolina.

I met him on New Year's Eve 1999 when I was stationed in nearby Ft. Bragg, N.C. We danced and everything (I was in my first marriage, but my marriage was already bad before we met). We dated for a few months til I got out and came to Arizona. I got back into contact with him last week for the first time in 10 years! He's on wikipedia about the Big Bob radio station there in Pennsylvania.

A few... and people who have been portrayed in movies. Most wouldn't know their names.

John & Joan Cusack are my cousins by marriage. I've only met Joan once, but John and I are pretty freindly. He took some drum lessons from me a few years ago when he was preparing for a part. Also, he's an avid runner like I am, so a couple years ago I visited him in Chicago where he lives and we ran the Wrigley Field 10-Miler together.

Who would've thought - same here

There is a very good chance you and I have passed each other in the halls, if you've attended a WorldCon! Or attended LosCon on the West Coast, LOL. Although I've gafiated for the last 2 years or so.

And to stay on-topic, author David Gerrold is a good friend of mine.

Yes, this guy. I have photographed him barefoot skiing after the age of 90. He is one nice gentleman.
