I really don't mean to brag here - really - I'm in NYC I meet them all the time.
I've worked with'em all - politicians (all the late Presidents), artists (hell Quincy, shit whot cares, I hate most celebs), sports figures (OJ, Joe Theisman), news people (Brokaw, Rather etc..), but, but, but - I'm a professional. Above all.....
I never, never ask for an autograph, a photo - notihin' other than sayin', "hello Mr./Mrs./Ms./ So'n'So, I'm here to blah, blah, blah - make you look and sound good....
With that said - I've never "lost control" - you know - blurted out - "hey, So'n'So, over here!"
Only once befor tonight - I met Emerille Lagassi (the cook, the chef) if you don't watch the Food Network you won't know who I'm talkin' about. I said, "Emerille! You're my hero man!" I shook his hand and that was that. Too cool for me.
Then tonight - who walks into my rather mundane public offered TV show? Al fucking Goldstein!!!!!!
You ask, "Who's Al Goldstein?"

On the list of world famous Pornographers (spelled with a capitol P) he rank about 4 or 5. Not to mention - personal friends with Allen Ginsburg and Andy Warhol.
Guess what? Nobody - I mean nobody else here - nobody in the audience, nobody from my organization, not one of the security crew - nobody recognizes him - cept me.
I introduce myself - he gives me 3 recent copies of SCREW magazine - he's the Founder, Publisher and Editor and his card. We talk - we want to do business. Fucking Hell!
An NYC icon! An icon of porn! Talin' to me!
He's going down to St. Martin to open a whore house tomorrow!
Ah - Sparky's life is great - sometimes.
Just thought you'd be interested.
