Rode with Arlen & Cory Ness from Newcastle WY to Cheyenne Crossing SD in '06, en route to Sturgis. Talked with 'em for a few minutes after we finished fueling up; real nice guys.

Back when I was a kid, my Dad & I were picking up someone at Chicago's Midway Airport. We were taking a leak in the Men's room, my Dad was on my right and John Wayne was on my left. I remember some idle chit chat between the Duke and the Ol' Man as we were washing our hands and heading out. That was pretty cool.

My father in law played "Cookie" in the Elvis movie "GI Blues". After he passed away there was an Elvis movie awards celebration in Memphis. My wife and I were flown down, given spending cash, a private tour of Graceland and my wife was sung Happy Birthday for her 40th by one of Elvis' song writers. She also met Wink Martindale.

I met Rush Limbaugh in New York at his TV show set. He signed both my books. Yep, that's where I am politically. Now the cat is out of the bag. I am a right winger. :-)

Joe Bologna (Adam Sandlers father on "Big Daddy") came through our town last night and got stopped by one of my officers for speeding. Had picture taken with John Walsh from Americas Most Wanted when I was at the LEO Memorial in D.C. Michal J. Fox used to own a house in the next town over (Woodstock, VT) and frequently passed him. Charles Bronson owned a house a few towns down (Brownsville, VT) He was a f'n jerk!
