    I took a leak next to Melvin Belli.

    I went through passport control in London with RUN DMC.

    At a hotel bar. Had a nice chat with Jean Luc Ponty, Stanley Clarke and Pat Metheny.

    When I started this "brush with fame" thread-jack, it was meant to be of the "real quick, just the tip" brushes with the family jewels.

    Idiots! #notapersonalattack

    Yeah well most of us haven't managed that trick, so now we're competing for the consolation prize.

    Much more interesting though than actually having to contemplate what Santorum really thinks about the American people.

    Rachel Maddow did a great segment on Santorum last night just to highlight the point that Romney is basically running against whackjobs. He'll win big because the alternative is so disgusting the GOP base is holding their collective noses and picking Romney.

    Santorum tells some whoppers on the campaign trail and never backs off them or offers an explanation. His latest jawdropper is him saying all the UC colleges in California don't offer American History in their curriculum. She googled them and found ONE that doesn't. UC San Francisco doesn't basically because they're a medical school. Before that was his statement that Death Panels in Holland were carrying out forced euthanasia in hospitals over there. I'll try to find the link and post it here.

    Its actually more of a reflection of a certain segment of the populace than Santorum. He wouldn't be saying such things if a significant number of people didn't believe it. I believe Santorum privately is a very sane individual, but he is playing to his audience for political mileage.

    For example, just yesterday I was at my local REI store, in the shoes section. Two guys next to me were examining a pair of Vibram 5-fingers. One said, these were designed from a theory that we all came from monkeys. The other guy goes like... damn.. they are such crazy people... what new science fad will they think of next... anything to discredit the bible... and a third guy overhears and joins in saying ... these godless people should just give up now... people aren't fooled by science anymore.. we've grown out of it.. I can easily see these people thinking of Santorum as their only viable choice.

    Obviously personal anecdotes don't prove any trend, but they do offer a snapshot.

    I'm starting to think that the definition of Santorum that Dan Savage came up with isn't disgusting enough.

    I once got drunk with a former NFL quarterback. My father was once naked in a sauna with Jesse Jackson. I was once a roommate with the son of the Greek ambassador to...somewhere.

    That's all I've got.
