I know! I saw her name and got all excited about my notes! And then realized what I did and knew I needed to not sully your political thread with my silly notes.
LOL!
There once was a mod on a board
No comments ‘bout Sarah go ignored
An overwhelming need to connote
Jabs jotted down on some silly note
Take some Prozac DJ, good lord!
Awesome Limerick!
Oh gosh! that would just be the best personal letter ever to get. Can you imagine what he'd write? I'm sure it would be some cryptically philosophical stuff - you'd have to post it so we could decipher and relish!
I have written some interesting people, but he would be fun to hear back from.
Who have you heard back from? Shaun Cassidy sent me a signed photo once way back in the early 70s.
That is so cool! The first time I did this, I only wrote a handful of people. And then over the years, I would drop a "fan" letter in the mail here and there. The one that just breaks my heart is Peter Falk. I wrote him about a year before he passed away and was starting his dementia.

I love those stories! That's great. Okay, who did you photograph George inflagrante delicto? And you should definitely drop Ric and Paulina a note! Just don't mention this incident, they might not write back.I never wrote any letters, but I did get the middle finger from George Harrison for taking his picture after a concert when he was with someone he probably didn't want to be photographed with, and was threatened to have my ass kick by Ric Ocasek and Paulina Porizkova when my brother and I cut in from of his car at a McDonalds drive-through.
And as a skinny and scrawny kid, I was given the nickname "Spaghetti Muscles" (which sadly stuck with me for years) by some Philadelphia Phillies’ ball players in the 60’s when I would be a batboy during some of their practices when my uncle worked for them and would take me along. "Hey Spaghetti Muscles, go get me my bat if it isn’t too heavy for you. Ha ha ha.". (Yeah... fun times

And look at him! He's spaghetti muscles if I ever saw one! What was he going to do? Beat up a couple kids, and he was how old? 60?

See, that's great! That's a great thing to have, you should frame it! Yeah, you know, I don't expect anything back, and probably won't get anything back. In this day and age, everyone wants to email and tweet. In my own little way, just trying to bring back the charm of a handwritten note and maybe when these people get these notes (if they reach them at all) just maybe they will like it and write me back. And if not, it was still fun.
All these close encounters are just fun little memories. You should write her and say, Hey sorry I almost knocked you down in the airport! She might just write you back.I almost knocked Jamie Lee Curtis over in an airport--lol. Was hurrying to meet a friend who was coming home from basic training & she was on the same flight. She's tiny, I'm tall... it was almost a disaster. Good thing my friend had fast reflexes (and she had no bodyguards to beat either of us down)
Somehow, that doesn't compare to a real letter
There ya go! Keep writing to people you admired, or who have made a difference or brought enjoyment in your life. Who doesn't want to hear something nice? Stephen King was my very first fan letter. I did not hear back.
