the only celebrity i've actually "met" was haley joel osment -- the kid from forrest gump and "A.I." he came to the lab and walked around and gave interviews and such during a press junket. it was sort of stunning to shake the wee little hand of a 12 year old kid who could buy and sell you a few times over. he was very nice, though.

my move to southern california totally jaded me in the way of celebrity sightings. my new friends, mostly bred in los angeles, were constantly saying things like, "oh yeah, kobe bryant lives on my block," and, "i've met andy garcia; he's cool," and, "i'm off to see the wedding of the guy who was in that sitcom"; etc.

yet, the closest to a truly brilliant sighting i've ever been was when i walked into the bookstore where i worked and was greeted with, "ANTHONY HOPKINS WAS HERE! YOU JUST MISSED HIM!"

that was dismaying.
