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.

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."

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

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