Famous!

Today, while I was at the airport for work, I saw two famous people.

The first person I saw was, Jamie Hyneman. He is from the show "MythBusters". He was walking through the luggage claim area looking a little confused. He didn't have his hat on, but his mustache was in full force.

Next I saw, Dwight from "The Office", Brian's favorite show. I was standing in the airport with another lady and I got very excited and was pointing and saying, "There's that guy from the Office!" She kept saying "Where?" and I would say, "Right There!" He walked close enough to us that we could have bumped elbows (He probably heard me talking about him too). She just kept saying where, I don't see anyone from the office. I finally realized she was looking for someone from our work office. She said I should say something to him, but I didn't want to because he was in a jacket (It's 106 degrees here) with the collar up and in a fishing hat with the rim pulled way down, he didn't seem like he wanted to be noticed or bothered.

Today at the airport got me thinking about what famous people we have seen since we moved to Vegas.

Donny Osmond sat in front of us at church one Sunday. We were late to church and so we had to sit in the back of the overflow. We sat down and noticed that Donny and his sons were sitting in front of us. They snuck out during the closing prayer, probably to avoid being mobbed by everyone in the ward.

Brian saw both Ozzy Osbourne and David Hasselhoff while out driving around Vegas for work. Ozzy was driving a silver SUV with "Lucifer" on the license plate. Hasselhoff was driving a red SUV with a young blond girl in the passenger seat. Brian rolled his window down and stared at Hasselhoff, hoping that while they were stopped at a light, he would roll his window down and say hi, but no such luck.
That's all for Vegas sightings but while I was traveling to Italy, we had a layover in Switzerland and in the airport I saw Tom Green (He used to have his own late night show). I actually had the courage to say hi and get a photo with him. He acts just like he did on his t.v show. I also met Minnie Driver at a Hanson concert. I was very excited for the concert so we got there early, she was there with her daughter really early too.
