Thank you, I had to google Buddy Rich. Shows how much I know about drumming.

Eww! No way our **Anaamika** is that much of a dick.

hehe. I heard that after Buddy died, his agent answered a call from someone wanting to book him. The agent explained that Buddy had passed away. The same guy called back, and the agent again explained that Buddy was gone. When he called a _third_ time, the agent asked if he hadn’t already called twice. His reply, “Yep. I just enjoy hearing the news”.

Apparently Buddy didn’t have many friends. 😛

**Twickster** went to UC Santa Barbara the same time I did, but I never met her. She also likes musicals.

It was also reported that when Buddy was admitted to the hospital for what turned out to be his final stay, he was asked if he had any allergies. The acerbic reply: “Yeah. Country music.”

Speaking of, does anyone know the former poster **Gundy**? She’s the only poster I ever met (well, minus my girlfriend whom I introduced to this board), when I coincidentally ended up in the cubicle next to her in a temp job I held a few years back. What happened to her?

I met her a couple of times at ChiDopes. She was very cute in person, even if she didn’t photograph well. I know a fact about her: she and I are both of Norwegian - Mexican descent. She looks more Mexican, I look more Norse.

**MaxTheVool** ’s cousin and I grew up together, and she has a speaking role in The Pursuit of Happiness (2006). Prior to him seeing a post of mine about my hometown a few years back, we were complete and total strangers.

More about his cousin and I than about him, but it is all I’ve got. :o

[QUOTE=Tristan]

**psycat90** is quiet, and attractive, and drove a REALLY long way for a horrible dopefest.  
[/QUOTE]

Hmmm. Well two out of three ain’t bad. 😉

I’m quite positive I have never been to a horrible dopefest. And I don’t usually drive to them. Either I fly or my husband drives, and I don’t recall ever going to one without him.

And that whole ‘quiet’ thing goes right out the window after a few drinks.
