-Karl Malone (Jr. Jazz camp)
-Ronnie Lott (promotion)
-Tony Dorsett (promotion)
-Emmanuel "Webster" Lewis (installed his satellite)
-L. Tom Perry (luncheon)
-Jenny Oaks Baker (high school, seminary)
-Former playmate of the year Julie Cialiani (had seats next to her at a 49ers game, the guys on the other side of us knew who she was, bishop that's all I swear)
-Antonin Scalia (luncheon)
-Gwenyth Paltrow (Sundance)

Beck (I wielded a press pass to get back stage of one of his shows. He is super nice.)
Jared Leto (Covering Sundance for the Daily Universe)
Andie MacDowell (Walking out of Long's Drugstore. She filmed Bad Girls in my hometown.)

And then a whole host of Utah/Mormon celebs
Larry King
Donnie Osmond
Stephen Covey
Picabo Street
(All of the above covering 4th of July stuff for the Des News)
President Monson (Hanging out with my family in the church office building)
President Faust (In the foyer at Stake conference)

And finally...

Tom Selleck
Robin Williams
Mike Wallace
Barbra Streisand
Tom Clancy
Itzhak Perlman
Tom Osborne
Lady Bird Johnson
Rosa Parks
Barack Obama

I'm still hoping for Kirk Herbstreit (he can call my plays anytime!), and the only man to ever look good in burnt orange: Matthew McConaughey. I'm also willing to consider visits from Brett Favre or John Cusack.

Bill Clinton
Yitzhak Rabin
Ronald Reagans' Casket
Melanie Griffith
Staci Keanan

Come on. This list is fake. Then YOhio has the audacity to turn around and tell Barbara, "That's a nice list."

Babs did have a great list. Next to Patrick Swayze, Tom Seleck is the biggest heartthrob of women over-50.
