1. I was once in a condo occupied by the actor Forrest Tucker....
and his mistress. They were in bathrobes. I was 20-something, and happily not alone but with someone from the office. It was related to the public relations agency I worked for at the time.

We were doing publicity for the building and the idea of him living there was supposed to be golden. I was mortified.

:blush:

3. I have met many famous people, most of them in the country music/radio/records business.
Some encounters were exceptional, some bad, but most were just fine.
