I have never been on a flight with SMI/J yet but I was on many-a flight with KEL/L and he was really cool. Once the in-flight service in F was completed he would stand in the forward galley and talk with the FA's until the plane began its decent. Would always take time to speak with me if I approached him in the galley, and I thought he was really cool...then and every other time that I met him. :-: He is a tall guy so he wasn't too hard to miss up there! My understanding is that BET/G did the same except that he worked the cabin at times.

Guy Fieri of Food Network fame was in F on 972 SFO-ORD on Saturday. Also of note, they swapped in a new config 777 for the usual 3 class 767. Lots of happy upgraders on that flight.

Houston Mayor Annise Parker and large entourage GIG-IAH 3.31. First noticed a group of people who got whisked thru miserable Brazilian Exit area - a la none of them waited in line. I didn't notice her then.
Recognized her and then spoke with her in the TAM/United Lounge for a while, along with an assistant specializing in International Trade and Development. On the flight she was in about 3 or 4A; I was in 8L.
Arriving to Houston there were several carts waiting for the group; and they were whisked thru Immigration (tho I beat her with my GOES ^).
At luggage carousel she had several airport security around her, spoke to again there. My luggage arrived before theirs; I beat her outside. While waiting on the FastPark2 bus saw a limo with 2 HPD cars parked in the middle area and sure enough the group got in the limo, which was then police escorted out of the airport area.

Geena Davis sat across the aisle from my wife and I on a PS Lax-JFK. She was very nice and had a nice conversation with Mrs. SGJazz.
