    A memory burned into my brain was when JZ, Todd and I were at an ATA show (or SHOT show or whatever) and JZ came out of the bathroom -grinning- and in his oh-so-subtle Zarr way.. blurts "I could have just c%#k gazed Tom Nelson!".

    In the 60's, when Dad worked at the Maytag Company, 1968 he was in charge of entertainment for the annual Maytag picnic. He got Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons to perform at the picnic. My father picked them up from the airport and before performing they came to our house and we ate dinner with them. Us kids had to sit at a card table in the kitchen to eat and Mr. Valli came into the kitchen and sat at the card table with us to eat. Even as an twelve year old, I was impressed with him choosing to sit with us over sitting in the dining room with the other adults. In the 70's when I was stationed at the Presidio of Monterey, California, we used to go over the hilltop behind the presidio to Carmel By The Sea where Clint Eastwood owned the Hogs Breath Inn. On Thursday evenings when he was in town, Mr. Eastwood would tend bar. Mr. Eastwood served us alcohol on many occasions and was (and I am sure still is) very supportive of the military.

    I talk to Jordy Nelson of the Packers every now and then, and I work with his BIL every day.

    Other than that I got nothing.

    I got all you guys by a mile.


    I met Bob Mercier once and he told me how I can hunt in my underwear and see a mature buck every time. It was awesome.

    Shook Bruce Springsteens hand at a beach in NJ about 7-8 years ago. I think my dad had the best, he, his brother and his fatrher where at an FBI event for my grandfather. In attendance was Ted Williams, the four of them ended up at a bar afterwards and spent the entire night drinking and b.s.ing.
