My wife just met Weird Al! He had a performance at the Honeywell Center right here in Wabash, IN last night and stayed at the hotel my wife manages. She was just talking to him a minute ago while I was on the phone with her. He hollered, "Hi" to me. Now I know a celebrity. What a deal. I could have met him, too if I could have gotten up to the motel in time. SOB. No car.

Cool! Isn't the Six Degrees of seperation a fascinating thing? (Just like the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon)

I know for a fact that I am two people removed from the entire NHL... it works like this: my buddy knows Mark Messier's sister as well as Mark, Messier know's just about the entire list of who's who in the NHL. Therefore I am 2 people removed from Gretzky, Gordie Howe and Maurice "The Rocket" Richard!

On the other hand, another friends father was a body guard for Benitto Mussillini! So I am two people removed from Hitler, Hirhito, and Stallin! Kinda sick when you look at it that way.

There are a lot of other combinations that are easy to figure out.

And yes, I am 3 people removed from Kevin Bacon! A former boss met Bruce Willis and Demi Moore at a boxing match in Vegas!

Why are you happy, Monkey?! You just found out that your wife is with a celebrity in a motel! Anyhow, Wierd Al is cool. He visited Sioux Falls a month or so ago and my girlfriend went to see him. I guess it was pretty cool.

Saw him at Kahunaville a few years ago. Name fits. It was fun, but I'll never go there again. the place sucks for a concert. not as bad a Stone Balloon, but bad enough.
