I saw Isaac Hayes at my local Barnhills buffet one Sunday. It was probably 5-6 years ago.

This was the moment when Michael Moore realized he needed to be in control of editing footage (Friedman's 100th birthday, today, btw):

Great video! I've never seen that before.

The best part was that Moore was getting owned in that back-and-forth debate and he was too dumb to realize it.

So my sister lives the high life in NYC, constantly meeting cool people, but it's to the point that I'm getting very jealous.

Her friend works on a few projects behind the scenes with Woody Harrelson. So my sister got to meet him last week. They had a group of friends and got plastered. She had Woody laughing so hard he made his assistant write down the joke. Now she's just texted saying they hung out again this weekend, and this time Will Ferrell was there.

Anybody else have cool stories?

Lived in NYC and Nashville, met far more celebs in Nashville than NYC. I did run into Bill Murray in Manhattan. Only time I've ever been starstruck.

I was skeptical that it was Moore. I was assured that it is. Just did some googling and there are people saying it's not him.

the video introduction itself says it's not Michael Moore and that the title was chosen since the guy was Michael Moore-like in terms of attitude.

One day in los angeles...

Went with my brother to check out rodeo drive. Didn't care for much aside from lambos, ferraris, bentleys and rolls royces everywhere. Anyhow, walking back to the rental car and we spotted $650 in cash laying on the ground. After waiting thirty minutes or so without somebody claiming it or finding ourselves on a hidden camera show, we decided to take the loot to the mecca guitar center in hollywood to get some pedals and a crash cymbal. I went to the acoustics room in the back tofind daron malakian of system of a down jamming on a 12 string rickenbacker. Jammed and chatted with him for a couple minutes before breaking out with some new boss pedals... Flange and delay iirc.

Twas a good day.

If you think that's Michael Moore, I have to seriously question whether or not you have met the famous people you say you have.

40 years and 200 lbs difference would make anybody hard to recognize, IMO....maybe you don't agree?

Fun exercise....this is a celebrity you've seen a million times. Tell me who it is:

That's Alex Trebek. But thats not exactly what I'm talking about. That guy looks nothing like Michael Moore other than having long brown hair. It sounds like something he would say though.

You can see that this is clearly the same guy. Not the case with MM and whoever than other guy is.

Did you really know that was Trebek or did you look it up somehow? That looks nothing like Trebek, to me.
