Famous Friends

FOSHI...
I actually DO know Israel. He was my neighbor til last Dec. I talk to him as often as possible- even had coffee w/him last night! ~ My kids look up to and totally adore him! Prob bc he's such an open-minded and caring person. He treats them with about as much respect as he does an adult. But he's also into some of the same interesting things my kids tend to enjoy. ~ So, yeah... he's prob one of the most wonderful people I'll ever meet in this lifetime!

And as far a porn stars.... look up Jolene Hexx... she was one of my neighbors as well. She's also a stripper out here. If I read correctly she was also on the cover of/ or inside Penthouse - Apr09 ((???)) Unfortunately, she's not the kind of person I would choose to have around myself and my family, after displaying some VERY negative behavior around us.

I am supposedly related to Dennis Farina according to my dad's side of the family. I wish I could find out if it's true or not, and how. I actually get asked about it occasionally. I tried looking at the Ancestry site but you have to pay even for the "free trial." Screw that. I guess it will just be a big unknown.

If you go to The Church of Latter Day Saints official website, you can actually get it done for free. Plus, the Mormon church has gotten a big, positive reputation for their work in geneology! I know MANY who've gotten their geneology done through them. I plan to do it, too- Just gonna wait til next yr bc I got my hands full with moving cross country. Good luck!

Ted Nugent goes hunting every yr up in MI, and stops in regularly to eat at the 50's style diner my cousin owns.... My 2 older kids are "allegedly" related to Abraham Lincoln via their bio-dad's family. Oddly, I named my oldest son Abe! ... My 1/2 sisters discovered they are related to Jesse James (outlaw).... One of my cousin's went to an AA meeting quite a few ys back and got to meet Robin Williams. ... Spent time in Dec 2010 with Chad Calek and his "Ghost Prophecies" team/cast. All of them are incredibly nice! Throw Ryan Buell from "Paranormal State" in there, and your night is ruined for sure! He's the biggest pompus-rump I've EVER encountered! However, if yo've heard of the band "Index Case", Joe Ansley from the band is also part of the cast/team for AGH Nation- which does "Ghost Prophecies". He is so incredibly sweet and down to earth! ... Have a few other minor acquintances with people who work in the Paranormal Investigation field, too. All good people.

I don't know anyone famous... My dad knows, and has done work for FSU football's former coach Bobby Bowden's daughter, Ginger Madden.

She's a lawyer I believe in Okaloosa county... I kinda like that my dad knows her, and has done work for her, and probably will continue to, since I'm an FSU fan

Not sure if any of you have heard of Babicz guitars (most badass acoustic you can ever play), I know the creator of the company Jeff Babicz. I grew up right across the street from him and was best friends with his son. I learned how to play guitar on the prototype he made that started his whole company. He taught me how to play the blues and gave me much inspiration to build my own guitars. I'm still in touch with him and his son.

Not exactly famous again, but certainly interesting:

My grandfather's (dad's side) brother authored the paper that caused the Surgeon General to write up the warning on cigarette packages in the US.

I've met Uncle Ted on a couple occasions and even got to jam with him before a concert in Montana. Incredibly nice guy. You've just gotta know how to speak "Nuge".

I went to school and graduated with 2 guys one is Bob Zilla off of Damage Plan/Hell Yeah and Raymond Herrera from Fear Factory, and back in the day used to hang out with guys from G&R and Ratt Motley Crue among others that were starting out...nothing like living in L.A. during the 80s and the Sunset strips glory days...IF anyone here is from that time...Remember Gazzaris The Rainbow and The Whiskey...now that was fun

This isn't a friend, but my cousin just told me that Ed Gein was our great uncle. That explains a lot!

My cousin is Shia LaBeouf of transformers hes actually pretty crazy and I used to suf w ryan sheckler till he turned Into a mega ........ When he got his mtv show

Shia is seriously your cousin?? I had the biggest celebrity-crush on him a while back.



As for me, I was good friends with Craig Traylor who played Stevie (the one in the wheelchair) in Malcolm in the Middle when he was younger. Funny thing was I was friends with him for over one year before someone else pointed out to me that he's an actor and played Stevie. It blew my mind! He's a great guy but I've lost touch with him in the last year or so.
