THIS WEEK’S SEVEN QUESTIONS:
THE THEME: We Know People

Who is the most famous person you’ve met?
Mike Tyson… It’s not cool to have met Mike Tyson anymore (probably because every stripper in Arizona has met him at least once), but he is one of the most recognizable people in the world. He used to live ride down the street from me when I lived in Vegas. His house was nicer. But then again, mine never foreclosed.

Who is the most famous person you call friend?
Jason Isringhausen. (All-Star Pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals) I went to high school with him, played on the baseball team with him, hell I’ve seen him naked.

Who is the most famous person that went to your high school?
Don Shanks… He played the Indian sidekick on Grizzly Adams.

What famous person would you like to meet?
The Cloon. Under the right circumstances, I’m convinced George and I would become friends.

What famous person have you met and wish you hadn’t?
Bobby Czyz. Don’t ask me why, but the former heavyweight boxer (and Mensa member) went skydiving with me. It was a group of my friends and Bobby Czyz, and trust me when I tell you there wasn’t a person there who couldn’t wait to get away from him.

If you could start a posse of famous people, who would you ride with?
Clooney, Stephen Colbert & Shane Doan

If you became famous, who’s the first famous person you’d snub?
Oprah… I like Oprah, but my strategy is: if I start snubbing at the top, the rest of the famous people in the world will find me that much cooler. It worked for Patrick Dempsey once.
