When my Google Alert pointed me to this video,

A "Tacky" lyrics video

I noticed there were no comments yet, and I couldn't resist. Yeah, pretty lame.

When I was a kid, I met paleontologist Robert Bakker (name-dropped in Jurassic Park, and his fictional counterpart, Dr. Burke, is eaten by a T. rex in The Lost World: Jurassic Park), and he signed my copy of the book Hunting Dinosaurs, for which he wrote the forward, plus a poster.

My best friend from high school (with whom I met Al at the SOL album signing) once met Haley Joel Osment at our local guitar shop.

Bill Mumy liked a comment I made about a video of him doing a little Chet Atkins style guitar pickin'! Made my day! :D
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

I just got a new lame claim to fame! I am now a Yelp elite squad member in 2015! I have no idea what that means but it's rad. Maybe it means I has no life...

Daphne Oz, co-host of The Chew and daughter of Dr. Oz, was two people in front of me yesterday at an ice cream shop.
