SOme years ago when they celebrated the foudning of the UN in San francisco my wife and then young son were asked to be representatives for New Zealand in the pageant of flags (or whatever they called it) . Part of the gig is they had to wear traditional Maori dress. SO my son is wearing a moko (facial Tatoo) and at the end of thepageant they invite several couyntry reps to go on stage. My son and wiofe are among them. At this point out comes President Clinton, President Bush (I), President Ford, President Carter and President Reagan attended. These 5, along with Bhoutros-Gali all came up and shook hands and chatted witrht he seleceted country reps. Carter stopped and told me sone he had a nice paint job and asked about the culture. The other presidents were not so chatty. It was one of the very few times 5 presidents had been together in one place.

He has lost several times, most recently to Matt Hughes in UFC 60. Still a legend in the sport, Royce once fought a 400 pound man.

Arnold the Governator

Reggie Bush/Matt Leinart: Teammates of my brother. Reggie is a favorite of my 7 year old; he always went out of his way to say hi to my son when he would see him at practice. Leinart was cool as well.

Ronnie Lott

George Lucas: Met him at the last Rose Bowl.

Royce Gracie: Lives across the street from us.

I'll pass the message along to Royce when he gets back into town.

He's in Europe doing seminars.

Jacare vs Manhoef...should be a good one.

Stephen Covey's daughter was in our ward. He spoke one sacrament meeting. It was good.

Jacare will be to much for Manhoef, I actually felt bad for Sakuraba he needs to hang it up.

LOL, I met Captain Steroids at a Las Vegas Casino. He was such a prick that I didn't feel him worthy of making my Top 10 list.
