If Kate can do the Friday Five on Thursday, I can do it on Saturday. LOL I couldn't login yesterday, so there.

1. If you could eat dinner with and "get to know" one famous person (living or dead), who would you choose?
I think Jon Stewart. <.g> He reminds me so much of my friend Eric, and I therefore think he would be a lively, intelligent, hysterical dinner partner. Lance could also be fun, but honestly, too many expectations on my part. Jon would just be plain awesome.

2. Has the death of a famous person ever had an effect on you? Who was it and how did you feel?
I cried when both Princess Diana and John Kennedy, Jr died. I sobbed when Jimmy Stewart died. It was just so sad. The first two, they were so young. And Jimmy, I'd just loved him all my life. He was the nicest, sweetest man around. Right up until he died, if you walked by his house and said hello and chatted with him, he would sign things, he would take photos, he would even invite you in for lemonade sometimes. He was a class act.

3. If you could BE a famous person for 24 hours, who would you choose?
Hmmm. If I am them, I get their skills, right? Because I would say Allison Janney, who plays CJ on the West Wing. She's tall, she's beautiful, she works with Brad Whitford and Rob Lowe, not to mention Richard Shiff and Martin Sheen and everyone else, she says the amazing words of the brilliant Aaron Sorkin, and she does it with great style and breathtaking talent. I would love to be her for a day.
Okay, another idea that flitted through my brain was Britney. LOL Could be fun being a size -2 for a day. And I wanna see if Justin is a good kisser. <.g> Those are really the only two perks, though. I still go Allison. I'd just maybe adlib a kiss or two. LOL

4. Do people ever tell you that you look like someone famous? Who?
A lot of people have said I look like Aly Hannigan, who is Willow on Buffy and Michelle the flute player in American Pie. Well, we did have the same hair cut and style for years, and it was red. LOL

5. Have you ever met anyone famous?
I've been trying to think about this. I've met a number of senators and congresspeople. I was a page on the senate floor for a day in 7th grade, and brought the wrong guy coffee. (Hey, they all look alike, all right?) I've seen Lance in person...he was the brightly colored speck with the huge ass necklace. <.g> Basically, I've met a lot of famous-in-some-fields people, and I know a lot of people who have met people. Kinda sad. LOL
