Hey, can I use your article on my website with a linkback?
someone else who dips their choctop in their popcorn! isn’t it the best?!
the best!!! glad you agree!
I have to admit, I only read the first eight things. But I like the idea a lot. Now I wonder if there are even 101 things worth listing about us? But I am pretty jealous that a drunk Bob Brown gave you a stack hat.
It’s really hard to top that.
Ha! Yes well, the thing about receiving a stack hat from a drunk Bob Brown when he was the Minister for Transport is that all I think is that he’s a complete tosser now!
But Im always trying to top it…I once saw Prime Minister John Howard in his ‘FederalOne’ car stopped at the lights in Sydney CBD and I just waved at him like I knew him. He smiled at me but it was weird like an awkward Mexican standoff.
I have many stories of awkward encounters with well known people…
Great post. I was checking continuously this weblog and I am inspired!
Very helpful info specially the final section 🙂
I take care of such info a lot. I used to be seeking this certain information for a long time.
Thank you and best of luck.
