I exchanged a knowing look with my new intimate, Mr. Krabbé, to let him know that I appreciated his work and wasn't wowed by the much brighter star power five pews up. Now, every time I tell this story I have to look up his name on IMDB --- and not just for spelling.
Anyone else weirdly proud of a minor celeb encounter? Bonus points if you peed on them, or were asked to.

I was on a boat with JJ Walker once. Saw him quite a few times in elevators, at bars, in restayrants. In the gym, I wiped down a treadmill before giving it to him. It took all of my willpower not to say "Dynomite" on several occasions. He seemed like a really nice, friendly guy. And he's fucking huge. I figured he'd beat me stupid if I ran that line past him.
