My Celebrity Encounters.
These articles are all about celebrities that I have met at various times throughout my life. I have never gone out of my way to meet these people; I have just bumped into them throughout my day.
All these people were very nice, and I thank them all for their company, their conversation and the stories they allowed me to remember.
While living in Florida, I met Mickey Spillane in a downtown restaurant in Orlando.
