Muhammad Ali - South Bend Airport

Howie Mandel - In Universal Studios. He was disguised a bit, and when he revealed himself, we had ZERO clue who he was(he was shocked and almost mad at us). He was filming for Howie Do It.. some of us made it to TV. I was with Eli and Levi.

Kris Humphries - Walgreens in Miami Beach on 41st and Pine Tree Drive. Snapped a pic of him , he wasn't so in the mood.

Ruth Buzzi - so who even remembers her?

I had Friday night dinner with the US ambassador to the Czech Republic at the ambassadors mansion in Prague. It was the first Kosher function and first Minyan ever at the mansion. The ambassador is a Frum Jew Norm Eisen.

I was in manhattan with a friend and this Friends cousin calls him and asks us to meet him at some address (don't remember) and we show up, walk into the 5 story brownstone and as we are walking into the room someone meets us at the door holding a pan with a mound of cocaine and says "hey watsup ?"like it was no big deal to be holding enough cocaine for an elephant! Turns  out this person was Shawn Parker (Facebook, Napster) who has been arrested a few times for cocaine possession.

+1 had moshiach seuda with him this past pessach. Really nice guy, invited me to reach out to him when ever I am in Prague. I also met with Lithuanian ambassador Anne Darsey had a nice meeting with her on antisemitism in Lithuania and how to combat it. Some really great ideas were discussed.

Was on a BRU-EWR flight with Matt Dillon. The FA recommended that I ask him to autograph my kids diaper. And they say UA FAs have no class...

I bumped into shaquille o'neal in the back aisle of Walgreens. He shook our hands and said "Shalom brothers!"
