My Buddy...
Okay, so this is my first story posted to ezabel so please bear with me. I have a story that just must be told... So here goes. Do you all remember the fab early 90s TV show Charles in Charge? How could you not really? Well, more importantly, do you remember Charles' idiot best friend Buddy Lembeck? Think hard....yes! That's the one! Well I talked to him on the phone today. That's right, me and Buddy. See, here's the situation (my parents went away for a week's vacation...oh wait, 80s music breakdown...back to the story) So, I work for Dave Szott, starting offensive lineman for the Red Skins (who have yet to win a game this year but hey, it's still cool) But he and his wife are born again and apparently the guy who played Buddy Lembeck had this crazy drug problem and in rehab became born again, so now the celebs got together and they're friends. Since he became born again Buddy started playing the role of "Bibleman". It's some series of tapes for kids that teaches bible morals, but the kids I watch LOVE it. So he calls occasionally and says hi to them as his character. Well today the called while I was there and yes, I got to talk to him, Buddy Lembeck in the flesh, ur, in the phone? So yeah, he's not exactly the same Buddy we all know and love anymore but who gets to say they've macked it with TV celebrities, even if it is only over the phone...

okay.
One time I met the singer for No Use For a Name, Tony Sly, but only because Brett said "hey there's tony sly", and I said "who?" and he said, "the singer from No Use For a Name". After I introduced Tony to all my friends, he said he had to get some burgers....what a guy.
sweet! tony sly. what a guy. what a name. what a legend.
I also met Arlo Eisenburg in New York City. He's a famous in-line skater, but he wasn't really nice...maybe because he didn't want anyone else to recognize him. Jerk...
I also met Tony Hawk, my very favorite skater in the world, and I got his autograph, and I met Andy McDonald, another famous skater at my first Warped Tour.
I met the guys from "Shades Apart" they are all cool and down to earth, but the best guy is Kevin, the bass player, he was really really nice, and we got all their autographs (mark, ed, and kevin's).
I was brought on stage in the play "Blue Man Group". That was awesome.
oh yeah, and when I met tony and andy--the cool skaters, Adam McCord did, too, and he caught a skateboard thrown out by tony himself! Now it's signed and probably hung up at Adam's house... Adam's cool.
a few years ago i was at johnny rocket's in hollywood, ca and i met the guy from dumb and dumber, the cop, who drinks the pee... it was cool. he fell in love with me, but i had to reject him :)
cool, you met rocketman??! sweet!
i have adam mccord's autograph, true story!
Yea , you think you're special now do you megan!!! yea whatever !
Charles in charge of our wrongs.. and our rights..
Charles in charge of our days and our nights
I hear CHARLES was quite the ladies man in "real" LIFE..
GUYS do you ALL remember GWENDOLYN.. his really hott girlfriend..well back then she was hott...then again i was like 3 1/2..
MEgan, Tell Mr. Szott..they really need me on the team.. even if it's only as a real life PUNCH BAG.. i don't feel pain.. so i'd be perfect for the job
Yeah Charles WAS the ladies man in real life, apparently he and Buddy used to go out and get women, drink and do drugs, that was part of why he had to go into rehab and found god (or some false version thereof) This is all coming right from the horse's mouth...he doesn't speak well of our good ol' chaz.
Really did our superhero BIBLEMAN try to Seduce you ?
So what does bibleman do... like lets say there's a man falling from a building.. superman would fly in and catch him.. what would bible man do.. lay down a bunch of bibles on the ground for a soft landing.. i'm ..umm.. perplexed.

I KNOW & HANGOUT WITH THE BAND MEMBERS OF ABSOLUTE ZERO!!!!!!!!

:-D thanks todd!
hey i met Jesse Camp too. He came to my High School cuz yes Ramsey high School was on MTV. I was gonna take a pic with him but his lanky super skinny arms were way nasty so i passed. Buddy was cool but forget Charles..I rather have "Chochi" from his Happy day times....now he was a real man not a stupid butler or whatever "Charles" was. haha
Jesse Camp came to my old job. He works as a painter now for his uncle. He came in to the hotel lookin for where he was going to paint, and we were like, umm what are talking about. Then some one was like, your Jesse Camp, and he was like "Yeah Man, You know if this is the Comfort Inn?" We were like no, thats next door, then he proceeded to hit himself in the head and say "Oh, Duh, all these hotels look the same" After that he left, and I found out why he doesnt VJ anymore.
Oh yeah i remember...Adam L told me all about that..back in the Ramada days....ahhh memories memories
two comments:
1) Way back when they had "GodStuff" on The Daily Show, they showed a clip of "Bibleman" it was so funny, they were making fun of him so bad. hahahaha.
2) I met CLAIRE DANES in NYC last friday after the Bjork concert. I guess she was at the concert, but we saw her on the street.... ok I didn't meet her but I took her picture and someone I was with talked to her.
oh yeah? well one time i was walking around NYC and i heard glass breaking and a scream so i looked up and there was Carson Daly falling to his death right in the middle of TRL!!! So what i did was, i thought real quick, and i held out my arms and caught him perfectly, and he was so happy and greatful and he gave me a big soul kiss right on the mouth. i'm not even kidding either.
oh my goodness... CARSON IM COMING FOR YOU!!!
CARSON'S DEAD
I don't get it.. CARSON is nothing.. his an average nothing.. he just stands there.. with his hands glued to his sides and says .. well he's the number 1 ... and depending who the guest is who'll be like ..whats up G, whats up bro, rock on , hip hop Fo' life. Carson needs to get off the air.. and be replaced with me.. Average plain boring people like that should not be on tv.. WHO'S WITH ME !!!??

NO!!! but my cabbage patch doll was named ann marie :)
Does anyone remeber the Garbage Pail Kids?? I collected all there stickers, they were my favorite!!
i heard some rumor that a kid sister doll came to life and ran after some kid...or was that a smurf doll? or maybe it was both??
that wwas a smurf doll. . i heard they were suppose to be evil.. and bad..
don't mess with them..
they were freaky! jesse t told me that he wanted one so bad when he was like 12, and then finally got it. i bet everyone made fun of him. i would have!

HAHA
Tina stop eating before you go to bed.
yes yes yes... "in my dreams"
yeah, thanks for explaining my joke. ughghg.
I also ran into that girl from Real World New Orleans, Melissa, the girl with the big lips. I was in an airport in Detroit and I was walking by her while she was sitting on a suitcase, and said man you are that short. She gave me a look, at this point I already know how she grew up, what she was like when she was a kid, her sense of humor, her personality, so when I said you really are short, I forgot she never knew anything about me...kinda weird if you think about. Then we started talking and she got all into how she wishes she never got her emotional problems televized, and she told me secrets on how to get away without being on TV, like being Naked all the time or contiuosly curse after every other word so the beeps would be long enough so they couldn't air it. It was interesting. So now I can say I did meet someone famous you guys probably know. I also met this tennis chick, Amanda Keutzer she is a south african tennis chick, I thought that was pretty cool too, they have a great accent.
Why can't I meet somebody famous???? :(
youve already met me ian!
Tina, he said famous, meaning someone who everyone actually wants to know...j/k
One time i met someone famous.. just hanging out in my bedroom it was weird..
so there i was .. in bed.. around 12 noon.. and i roll out of bed.. WHAP.. i turn to my left.. and there he was.. this really really really ridiculously good looking famous guy.. he looked just like me.. and i think it was my mirror.
BOOM.
