It was right when Karate Kid 3 came out, and we were waiting in line at Chicagos by in Dupont circle (now Buffalo billiards I think). My only "celebrity" sighting. He was very good looking, but also quite an ass.

Now I feel bad saying he was an ass. This was over 20 years ago. I'm sure he may be perfectly nice now. He was probably only 20-ish at the time.

AJ Quartermaine! He was kicked off of General Hospital in the 90s because of a booze problem, but I think he came back recently...? I haven't watched GH in a decade.

Ok wait, I think I saw AJ Quartmaine too, but my memory, which I had forgotten until this second, is of him playing pool at buffalo billiards...weird.

Maude Flanders. She's short, cute, fleshy and her real name is Maggie Roswell.

Jared Leto. Bought my coffee when I was in front of him in line and didn't have the right change (I was 20, no debit card for me back then!). Great skin, sparkly eyes, I convinced myself he was hitting on me (he wasn't)

Sat next to Clive Owen at a fundraiser. Looks the same in person as in his movies, gorgeous. Had brought his mum as his date!

Dudley Moore tried to pick me up on Madison Ave in NYC. Cute but old enough to be my Dad. I was twenty at the time and mortified.

Tom Hanks complemented my DH, "Very Snazzy," on his hat which had been a party favor and obviously too small for his big head. We were getting on a water taxi that he was disembarking on Cipriani's dock in Venice. Too funny! Mr Hanks was dressed in a white linen suit and he looked very handsome.

We took a ski class together in the 90s. I was a group of Japanese tourists, he and I in the class. He was fairly reserved, introduced himself to me as "Fred" and to the instructor as "Tom". I was pretty sure it was him and I knew for sure when he couldn't keep his cover name straight. We were the only English speakers in the class and we just shot the shit and laughed about our shitty skiing. This was in 91? 92? before they changed their sound and they weren't as famous.

EXCUSE ME??? The Joshua Tree came out in 1987. U2 was on the cover of Time magazine and had sold out stadium concerts. They were quite famous by 1991.

AS famous. AKA mainstream. I always loved U2 and got mocked for it in middle school. It wasn't until Achtung Baby and Mysterious Ways that everyone and his brother knew who they were.

oh, and forgot.... Sylvester Stallone... very short, maybe 5'7" as noted above. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer would be kind ...

No, he's not the brightest. I used to see him from time to time when I was a kid. For whatever reason he would come to my little town to get his hair cut by this old Italian barber.

Stallone's crazy aunt would attend mass at the Italian church in DC.

nutty, nutty lady - nice, but nutty

Giulian Rancic's mother is not very friendly.
