Mega, this textbook was …?
It’s an English textbook called “Starting Blocks” by A. Gray, P. Gray and J.P.S. Taras.
Good enough! I’ll keep my eyes peeled for it.
Well, drop, I’m not famous that I know of. I do however have a famous relative or two. Edgar Allen Poe, 4th great grandpa on Mom’s side for one. Does that count?
red_dragon-It’s not my main occupation, but a side one. And cough cough yes cough cough. I try and do it as little as I can (okay…when I’m asked, I run, but I’m in New York so not a lot comes my way. I go nameless, I get payed a lot of $$ and I can say that I’ve actually been in two movies. Okay, I’m done now.

I was on MTV. I live in New Jersey and a few years ago MTV took over Seaside Heights. Well I enjoy performing Karaoke and I tried out for Say What Karaoke and I made it onto the show. I didn’t win (came in second) but I had a blast. People still come up to me and ask was I on MTV.
BTW If anyone here is looking for an amature actor I’m available. Pictures available on request too
Me, I’m nobody at all; an anonymous little magazine editor.
Though someone else who hangs out here was recently mentioned in the magazine I work for, so that’s sort of a brush with greatness, I guess.

Catrandon – The mag is?
I think I mentioned this in another thread, and possibly in this one, but why the hell do I care?
Great-grandfather: Joyce Kilmer (and yes, HE was a MAN, not a woman).
other great-grandfather: Fred Frieseke (impressionist painter along with monet etc)
Grandfather: Kenton Kilmer, poet and editor of parts of the Washington Post for a time. Also published author.
other grandfather: brigadier general in the army . … figure I might as well put him in here.
Any of you who read obscure murder mysteries might have heard of my uncle Nicholas Kilmer, who’s also an art dealer.
And then there’s Val and Billy . . .
The one really cool one, though, is Sir Francis Drake. A pirate. Some of you already know about him.
The only non-related celebrity I think I ever met was John Langstaff, so far as I know.
Well I was once mentioned by e-mail address in Eric Zorns’ Chicago Tribune column. You may kiss my feet now
Yeah, well Mr Zorn mentioned me by name AND printed an embarassing, drunken quote by me once that made me real happy nobody hardly reads his column. SO THERE!
Buying him a beer helped.
Well I’m just crushed!! Rain all over my parade why don’t you. I bet you steal candy from babies too.
