I'm guessing he wasn't voted "most popular" in school ;)

When i was a college president we met several governors of NY state

We also encountered former President Ford very early in my career when i was attending a congressional session and he was still in Congress at the time.

We also had a chance meeting with Steven Tyler of Aerosmith ( a fav) and on a separate occasion Rudy Guiliani as both were coming out of the Waldorff-Astoria in Manhattan while we were coming thru the hotel

I've bumped into him twice. Which isn't that uncommon around Boston. Once almost literally; we were at the movies in Kingston, MA and he was a couple rows in front of us with a few of his kids and wife. Just a normal guy (who dresses funny) at the mall. After the movie we were leaving the bathroom and, I guess some fans had discovered him, he came rushing in and we almost knocked him over. Never realized how short he was before that.

The guy is really "height - challanged"---- but the dude can sing !

I almost knocked Regis Philbin over in NYC once.. Was rushing around - turned a corner and came close to slamming the little dude.. Apologized to him.. He said "thats OK big guy"..

Felt bad...

I enjoyed a cookout with Steven and Joe Perry. A friend of mine in High School was his nephew. Both nice guys. Steven is apperently pretty cheap with his money. Darren's mom (steven's sister) was dirt poor and steven didn't really do anything to help her out. As cool as it was to meet Steven, I much would have rather met his daughter Liv :lol:

Joe Perry actually went to my high school and was kicked out for refusing to cut his hair. Even considering that, when I was a junior, the school honored Joe with a lifetime achievement award.

Interesting fact, the music to "Dream On" on was not written by Aerosmith. My theatre teacher's brother in law wrote the song and actually sold it to Joe Perry for $100 in the late 60's.
