So sad--I live for seeing famous people and I too saw Tim Russert at the airport and twice at sports events ( Saw Luke with him once at a Wizards game. He looked just as nice in person--

I met Andrea Mitchell at Starbucks the morning (spring Valley)I found out (for sure at the dr with the blood test) that I was pregnant. I wanted to tell her but held back as we didn't tell our families for a little bit!

Saw Robert Redford in a Senate office building when I was in college many moons ago. He was lobbying Bill Bradley.

Worked at a restaurant and I saw/waited on Ozzy Osborne, Marilyn Manson, Tiger Woods & his mom, Robert Duvall (lives in Middleburg), the Gypsie Kings, Mike Tyson, and John Walsh (my personal idol). There were a few other, but I cannot think of them right now. Often people would come in with security and they'd be someone famous I would not recognize.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, George Stephenapolous, Dan Rather, Walter Mondale, and (my personal fave) Jesse "the Body" Ventura. I'm very jealous of my friend who ran into and had a chat with Bono in the bar at Gallileo.

Has anyone run into Bo Derek lately? How is she holding up?

George Stephanopoluous (never spell it right) runs on Wisconsin a lot of mornings between 9 and 10 am. I see him on my way to work. His hair is WAY out of control before they cement it down at ABC.

Yes, when I saw the subject line of this thread, I thought of Tim Russert immediately. I used to see him all over the place, always smiling.

What a wonderful man he was....
