"Best: Eating breakfast next to Johnny Cash at the Peabody Hotel in Memphis/hitting him with a straw wrapper. I was 7 at the time so I didn't think it was awesome then, but hearing the story now? Uber cool.I was doing that thing where you blow the wrapper off your straw and shoot it at someone. I was aiming for my parents, but the d**n wrapper just went wherever it wanted and flew right in front of Johnny Cash and landed on his plate. My parents made me apologize and apparently he tossed a napkin at me in retaliation. If only I had been old enough to appreciate how amazing that was.Worst: Ate breakfast next to Gary Coleman at a Cracker Barrel. 'Nuff said."

I've met and hung out with a lot of celebrities through the years. But the weirdest was in Autumn of '92 in Amherst, MA when I was in my early 20's. I've only been awake for about 15 minutes one morning and I had to go to work, which was at a bike shop about 200 yards from my house in the center of Amherst. I was walking still bleary-eyed from sleep through the alley I always use, when I look up and a long Kraft's Services table and no body around except for Nicole Kidman in a chair eating an apple. I looked at her with my eyes squinted because I couldn't really believe what I was looking at, and she looked back at me with the same look. I walked past her as we're still staring at each other and then I ended up walking onto the set next to the director in a chair. Bill Pullman and Alec Baldwin are sitting at a small table outside of Bonducci's Cafe about 10 feet from me. All of a sudden this large woman with headphones comes up and says, "Are you in this scene?" I'm like, "Umm...no." She say's, "Do you wanna?" I'm like, "Okay." She stuffs her hand in her coat and hands me a wad of bills. "I need you to just walk past those actors like a regular pedestrian when the Director says 'action'." I did the scene three times, and she said "Thank you, that's all."
They ended up not using the scene. But it was an unexpected fun little adventure. When I later counted the wad of bills, it was $376.00.
By the way...The movie was called, "Malice."
