    That's cool, Romeo.Where did you meet him ?
    ROMOS

    Stayed in the same hotel he was staying in.

    My mother lived with  Jimmy Don Cox.  He's by no means famous, but he did have a bit part as an extra in Gunsmoke and he played the County Sheriff in Tommy Lee Jones movie, The Good Ole Boy's.   Jimmy was also an artist and sculptor. Here's a picture he painted several years ago. Every Cowboy in this painting is a well known  person, such a Wilford Brimley, Elmor Kelton, Bruce Boxleiter etc.  Jimmy Don was also a great Festus impersonator.

    Beautiful spectacular fish, with the name of cichlasomacitrinellum , which come from the Central America, Nicaragua, Costa Rica. In China its name is shouxing fish, means lucky and longevity.

    Beat over the head is more like it.
    Jimmy died of cancer about 2 years ago. You would have liked to of known him, he did a great Festus impression. I know he met Miss Kitty.

    When I was in Las Vegas with my parents, and nothing to do, I met Dean Martin AND Bob Newhart (different times).  Both men were exceedingly cordial and pleasant. I have an 8 x 10 B/W glossy autographed by Dean.

    Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis movies are my favorite old black and white movies.
    tabber

    now that dean was a special handsome man, my type.
    Bob/PKB

    Hysterical duo. To this day, I remember how gracious Dean was, and how heartbroken he was when his son, Dino, was killed.
    mycatsmom

    he was never the same after his son died .Ditto for Johnny Carson.

    I met Barry Crocker (The Adventures of Barry MacKenzie) at Jupiter's Casino.Nice bloke.Easy to talk to.


    I also met Johnny O'Keefe Outside the York Hotel in Brisbane once.He was trying to catch a cab.


    And of course There was Rock 'n' Roll George whom I met several times.George was an iconic Brisbane celebrity.He drove around in an old Holden that everyone recognised.A sign on the front said "Rock"n"Roll.Sadly he passed a year or so ago.He will be missed.
