If I were actually Roland Orzabal, I’d be famous. But I’m not Roland Orzabal. I’m Ian. And even if I were Roland Orzabal, you might not know who Roland Orzabal is. In fact, you probably don’t know who Roland Orzabal is. One thing, however, is certain: I have said “Roland Orzabal” a sufficient number of times in this post. Therefore, I shall stop now.
Is there a way to make this thread a sticky?
Not being snarky and all, but it seems like this question is asked once a week, and it always ends the same way.
<slight_hijack> I’ve been wanting to get on Jeopardy, and I think I’ll give it a shot when I go back down to California for Christmas. I think it’ll be pretty hard not to sound off with “The day is mine, Trebek!”, however. </slight hijack>
“I’ll play your game, you rogue!” “Suck it Trebek!” “I’ll take Anal Bum Cover for $1000 Alex.” etc.
I have shared stages with several national celebrities. Foghat being one of them, yeah that’s right, I said Foghat baby. The line for autographs starts on the right.
Did I mention that my mom went to school with Bill Murray? She was his sister’s best friend. My dad’s roommate in prep school was also none other than “Nature Boy” Rick Flair. My sister’s childhood friends seem to be popping up on TV a bit recently. Her friend Veronica is now on that stupid MTV show “Inferno” or some crap, and her friend Jessica is now a host on Tech TV.
I’ve also met a ton of famous people. None of them remembered me 2 minutes later, but at least I felt special.
That’s all I got. Pretty damn pathetic, but at least it’s all true.
I’m not famous but I can drop names with the best of them.
I was an Aviation Cadet with Jack Webb - until he washed out in primary training.
In the Grand Ballroom of the Martinez Hotel in Cannes, France diring WWII I asked the movie actress and Olympic skating champion Sonja Henie to dance. She said, “No thanks.”
I was in a backyard players group with Caesar Romero’s brother. (OK that’s a stretch.)
