    When I was 6 years old which is longer ago than I care to mention, my family and I were visiting Chicago and were in the audience of a then popular national radio show, "Don Mc Neil's Breakfast Club". Somehow I wound up on the stage, talking with Don for about a quarter of an hour, literally my 15 minutes of fame as our chat was broadcast live across the U.S.

    Well, that was the start and end of my show biz career. But it was fun while it lasted.

    Have you ever has a shot at stardom? Appeared on radio, TV, movies? How do you look back at the experience?

    It was fun :)

    The most famous I've ever been is on the front page of our county's newspaper, and we live way out in the country.

    That was not fame weirdo. Being in hand cuffs and on the front page hiding your face does not count. :p
