I mean I don’t know him, but I feel that I owe him at least 5 or 6 smacks for years of Home Improvement. And 2 or 3 more for Man of the House. Yeesh, you wouldn’t find me passing up a chance like that. LC ---

Well, since everyone else is reaching, here’s my list. I am still dating the helicopter pilot/reporter for the local news station in this Midwest city. I’m also married to him, but we do go out on dates once a week. Also, I used to live with an actor who had prominent roles in such screen gems as “Clan of the Cave Bear”, and “Attack of the Killer Bimbos”, as well as insignificant parts in “Terminator 2” and “The Last Action Hero”. A sort-of wanna-be celeb. ---

My best friend’s mom went on a date with Steve McQueen once. My aunt briefly dated Mike Judge, creator of Beavis and Butthead and King of the Hill. How’s that for tenuous? ---

Does the celeb have to be human? I got to train Ben, the Rat, at work and go to watch and assist when he did a TV show. Actually, it was pretty cool. We were on set about five hours, and got to watch a number of takes of various scenes. Not to mention eat at the craft table! I still look after him. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Miller \* > **My aunt briefly dated Mike Judge, creator of Beavis and Butthead and King of the Hill.** Heh heh. In high school I was friendly with the woman who later became Mike Judge’s wife. And one of my closest friends tutored him in college. But I’ve never personally dated anyone even remotely famous. ---

I have mentioned this 1000 times on the board, but I got to be really good friends with a WCW wrestler/the guy who played Andy in Pee Wee’s Big Adventure. He saw the friendship as a lot more, in fact got so deranged over it he started to tell people I was his wife. This was right before the restraining order I had to get. I casually date the first cousin of Green Day’s lead singer, Joel. (I know, that was a stretch). I also casually date a Hollywood stunt man. He has been in quite a few movies, but the one that always comes to mind first is “Con Air”. Jum McMahon (NFL quarterback) once asked me if I wanted to go for a ride in his jalopy. This was in high school before he became famous and I turned him down because I thought he was a dick. Guess this one really doesn’t count, eh? ---

Perfect example of middle of the night posting - Make that BILLIE JOE of Green Day. Who the hell knows why I wrote JOEL and completely left out the BILLIE. ---

My wife used to go out with Norman Mailer. Karen Finley kissed me once. She was so happy with the lighting I did for her when she was in Houston during her “We Keep Our Victims Ready” tour she kissed me afterwards. That was some of the highest praise I ever received. I would crawl through broken glass to do another of her shows.
