I saw two celebrities in two days in NYC

[Renew Deal]

Yesterday I saw the great Mark Messier filming a motorcycle commercial. Today I saw actor Joe Lo Truglio when he was waiting to cross the street. He is on Brooklyn 9-9 and has been in a lot of great movies. I said hi and let him know I was a big fan.

It's not the first time I've seen celebrities around, but seeing two in a row was cool.

This is what makes NYC so much better than LA and other cities in terms of celebs. The celebs are walking around with everyone else. In LA they are in a car.

1. I walk into church sometimes and see Sam Waterstone.

Also I see Anderson Cooper often passing by my church.

3. The next time you see Anderson Cooper walk up and say hello

and ask if you can do a selfie with him.

2. Go skiing in Aspen/Snowmass and you'll see lots.

They hang out around town, too. Telluride as well.

I think the mega mega rich still do Vail, but the celebs love Aspen.

4. That's nothing....

if you stand on a street corner in London long enough, you'll see the royal family (some one). Saw the Queen and Prince Philip two times in one day. They were out promoting English businesses.

5. A long time ago I rode in an elevator with Cary Grant.

Revlon was in the building and he was on their Board. I was late coming back from lunch.

6. My fav celeb sighting in NY was George Clooney several years ago

who came in and was seated at the table next to us for a late (after concert)
dinner one night at Gabriel's, an Italian restaurant at 60th and Broadway.

7. Abe Vigoda used to be a frequent visitor to Mom's building!

He apparently had a ladyfriend who lived right on Mom's floor!

Mom also once saw Rue McClanahan riding the bus uptown.

8. Long ago I was waitressing and

had the unpleasant task of waiting on Jack Klugman (who was on Quincy at the time) and Brett Sommers. He was cocked and nasty to everyone including me. Brett was horrified and apologetic, she also tipped me VERY well.

I still watched and loved Quincy he was great in it.

9. I saw Fat Joe twice, and Mark McGrath once
