Coincidentally I just came here to post that, once again, the aforementioned Ms. Upton and I were on 1061 LAX-MCO today. I think she is following me....
I thought on the first trip, you were 6A, she was 5A, so you'd have been following her.

Besides, the view is better that way.

Aren't we supposed to report who we DID see, and not ask questions about people we never saw? I spent a good 2 hours on Delta in coach talking with Sen. Amy Klobuchar from MN. She is an amazing person.

My brief Easter-weekend trip to New York was bookended with celebrity sightings: Michael J. Fox in the JFK T4 Sky Club on Saturday morning and Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin in the T2 Sky Club on Sunday evening.

I'm curious how you are able to recognize the US Surgeon General out of context in a public place? Are you in the public health industry, or just generally interested in public health? Seems like that isn't necessarily a person most people would recognize.

Iggy Pop DEN-MSP yesterday...my wife (31) starts to swoon, and I had to casually remind her it's not 1983!

I sat behind Fabio (well, he was in 1B and I was in 2A) on a flight from PDX to MSP last December. It was much more entertaining for my Facebook friends than it was for me, though.

Also, stood about 8 feet away from Rob Reiner while waiting in SLC to board my flight to Denver last year. He was boarding a flight to LA. Some guy standing next to me points, and says "Hey, isn't that Rob Reiner right there?" I turned, and said "Could be. or Carl Reiner. Or it could be Penny Marshall - they all look the same to me."

As a big fan of both LA Law and Veronica Mars, I would have been very happy with that sighting.

Indeed. Be Sharps never made a song about him. He's no C Everett Koop.

He was wearing his full military dress uniform and name tag....otherwise, you are right - he would probably be unrecognizable!

Just a FYI, the US General Surgeon is in charge of the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps (PHSCC.)

Yes, and he wears a very official uniform that looks like military...
