Iggy here:

*laugh*  I'd probably be too afraid to touch his car and just wait for him
to finish what he was doing.

Speaking of close brushes, I once worked at the call center for a company
called West Marine Products that sells boating and related supplies.  Our
team instructor (Dave) was telling us about how, whenever Patrick Swayse
calls in to place orders, he always wanted to speak with Dave.  The class
was chatting about that they wouldn't ever expect to get a call from anyone
famous and it was  just a fluke.

Well, my first day running solo at my workstation, the third call I got was
from Dan Fogelberg.  I spent the next 10 minutes after the call trying to
figure out if it was really him.  Dave said that since he lived at a place
called Coyote Ranch in Colorado, it most likely *was* him.  (As opposed to
him living somewhere like Harlem in NY.)
