Oh, and I regularly see both Richard Hell and Tom Verlaine (NYC punk legends) in my neighborhood, and they've both always been pompous, grumpy dicks. 

Alex in NYC

>Another one: Two years ago, I'm in the Apple Store in Soho, looking at digital cameras. There's another guy there doing the same thing who looks remarkably familiar. We start comparing notes, talking about megapixels and such, and then it dawns on me, and I ask: "Waitaminute, are you the guitar player from Tommy Tutone?" For you UK'rs who may not be as familiar, Tommy Tutone was a one-hit-wonder band from the early 80's who are responsible for the single, "867-5309 Jenny". The guy looked alarmed and surprised. I was right (having recognized him --- though now much older -- from the single's video)  I made his day.

>>Back in the mid-90's, my friend Rob and I were hanging out late on a Tuesday night at a tiny pub on the Upper East Side called The Gaf. We pretty much had the place to ourselves unitl John Cusack, Uma Thurman and Jeremy Piven walked in. We're talking a TINY bar here, so it was sort've impossible not to interract with them. Uma bummed a cigarette off my friend Rob. Cusack was cool but a bit aloof. Jeremy Piven bought us shots.
