[Joey Belladonna.](http://www.metalsucks.net/2010/06/18/joey-belladonnas-job-is-not-safe/) I went to HS with this guy. I smoked dope with him. I’m glad I never went into a music career, like he did. He looks worse than I do. My life doesn’t suck as bad as I thought. ---

Here’s one I went to school with: [Dave Navarro](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Navarro). At least that’s what Wikipedia says. I have no memory of him, and he’s not in my yearbook. ---

> [@Gatopescado](#): > > It probably does compared to Joey Belladonnas. Ya know, you’re probably right. My life sucks less than Kevin Lupa’s. And he did as well as Joey. ---

I helped teach [Gina Glocksen](http://www.americanidol.com/contestants/season_6/gina_glocksen) to say “Ciao, Babe!” and blow a kiss when she was a baby. (One of her older sisters and I were classmates for many years, and their mom was a room mother; she’d bring baby Gina to our class when she was volunteering.) ---

[Tom Morello](http://www.boudist.com/images/tom-morello-2.JPG) and I used to hang out a lot in college. He introduced me to my best friend, who was the impetus for me coming to Colorado. He was just as talented, and politically radical, back then as he is now. ---

I went to high school with Adam Carolla. He did pretty well. I browsed through his “memoir” and one thing stood out: He mentions one of his math teachers by name and how he really disliked her. Well, I had her too and she was one of my favorite teachers. I had her for trig.
