    I've had my brushes with fame more than once. I starred in a film for a friend that was in film school. It was a 10 minute film and I played a drug dealer and then a gay guy (i'm neither).
    I got to see it in a film festival in a real theatre and that was kinda surreal.
    Also when freelancing times were very lean, I worked at a coffee shop in venice/santa monica (The Coffee Bean on Main street) and there were movie stars going in there like every day. Jean Claude Van Damn was a regular asshole there. He told me to fuck off once. Julia Roberts and Cameron Diaz were also regulars. Also Tim Meadows from Saturday Night Live. The singer from Red Hot Chilli Peppers. Nicolas Cage actually knew me by my first name. He liked chai tea lattes. I know all their favorite drinks. There were a lot of lesser known people too. But the highlight was the time when Johnny Rotten asked me where the bathroom was. I was truly star struck then...

    And even with all those people going there, I never got discovered...

    :-(
