    celebrety sighting

    My roomate, me, and this very girl I was on a "date" with met Pen Gillette at a diner on friday night.
    I was very star struck. my roomate blew my cover and told him I was a pro juggler. Pen asked me what kind of juggler, and I tried to be very vague. Then he got me to tell him my "big trick" and replied "ok, now I know what kind of juggler you are" and sort of dismissed me.
    Then some guy came up and insisted on showing pen how he can pull a ring through a rope. what is it with magicians? he was dismissed as well.
    Then some girl came over and gushed about how her uncle took pen's senior pictures. pen was very diplomatic.
    in the end, my roomate won the who's coolest at the diner contest because he makes nifty little electronic instraments and pen walked away with his email address and one of his gadjets. My roomate even had a real conversation with him about music and alfred hitchcock stuff.
    so that's pretty darn exciting huh. i got my picture taken with him though. go me!

    Try political theory next time. If I remember correctly, Pen & Teller, both have strong Libertarian leanings.

    I'm not sure, but I think it more likely small L Libertarian.

    Tell me more about the electronic instraments your room mate makes.

      In Manhattan

      When I was in Manhatta last month I was walking outside of the McDOnalds on Times Square and I ran into Franky Muniz from Malcom In the Middle, after he was finished telling me how good of a juggler I was yada yada yada I ran into Sponge Bob Square Pants! That was a crazy night! You should of seen Sponge Bob's face!

        Celebrity Sighting

        How about strolling thru the French Quarter almost any day of the week and running on to the great magician/actor Harry Anderson?

        Harry, late of "Night Court" and "Dave's World" fame, has opened up a magic shop at the corner of Dumaine and Charters Streets and, having decided to curtail his incessant touring because he and his beautiful new wife are ensconced in a condo in the Quarter, is rebuilding an old bistro at the corner of Decatur Street and Esplanade into a magic club. We look forward to many more magical celebrity sightings once the new club opens!

          I actually had Robin Williams out at the pitch, watching safely from a distance. Apparently he had seen the entirety of my show.

          Didn't say anything though, I think he was keeping his distance (understandably) from the public.

          All I know is if that bugger walked over just as I was into my hat line....
