I’ve delivered pizza to then-Secretary of State Colin Powell, in person, to his home in McLean, VA.
I love to write, but the thought of doing National Novel Writing Month is terrifying. >_<
I make the most delicious omelettes I’ve ever tasted.
I became a grandma today! Well, a step-grandma (my husband’s daughter had a baby).
Might be cool. 
I’ve shaken hands with all three of the Sultan of Brunei’s wives.
Not simultaneously, I’m guessing.
A former Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor of Vermont is having ice cream in my kitchen at this very moment.
I’ve seen Elizabeth Taylor three times in my life: onstage in *Little Foxes * at the Kennedy Center; disembarking at JFK airport and she was head-to-toe in white fur; and in the veggie section in the Safeway in Potomac, Maryland.
I’ve created the official best Disney Princess costume at Dragon*con.
I was a ventriloquist when I was a child (my father was a magician, Punch and Judy puppeteer and Ronald McDonald so it was a show-biz family. My older brother was a unicyclist).
Not the mistake of Columbus.
Richard Nixon stole my mitten.
I tap-danced on the stage of the Palace Theater in New York City, after being invited backstage by Bob Fitch (then playing the role of Will Rogers’ father in the Will Rogers Follies), and descending the secret Judy Garland stairway to get to the dressing rooms. It was after the show, of course–no audience. But still.
I wrote narration for a documentary voiced by Tommy Smothers, whom I met when he came here to cut the audio track and film the portions of the doc in which he appeared. Nice man. I ate lunch with him and he showed us his yo-yos. :eek: 
I have two passports US/UK .
So, I’ve always wondered, is the halting speech normal for him or entirely a character act?
Ha, no he talked relatively normally from what I remember, but now that I think about it, I think that act was just an exaggeration of his normal speech. He didn’t much care for the formal narration, which I can of course understand, him being a comedian more or less. We let him just wing his on-camera part, telling his own story about how he knew the subject of the doc in his own words instead of the scripted version I’d written.
I am jealous of digs.
OK, now you’ve got to tell us the story.
I hold a Massachusetts cannon and mortar firing license.
