I don't know about that. I had the opportunity to get an autographed picture from Jet Li, and he actually came through: 2 years later. But still he did come through. I posted his autograph on the site. Feel free to take a look at it.

One of my Favorite bandeven though Mick Sucks the Rolling stones, I actually landed Charlie Ronnie and Keith, yes Keith he signed at the hotel the day after the show on the way to the airport. That was an awesome day!I met Steven Tyler in a restraunt in Houston TX where he was performing in the super bowl. Even though I was the only one I got ST for his autograph (sucks) he has such a nice one if he takes his time. Eddie Van Halen (togh took me 3days to get one), Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry(drove to ST LOUIS and walked away with 9 autographs my buddies that were with could not believe it. ( funny story behind that), Billy Joel funny story we chased him driving backwards in my buddies car to his hotel after his show. Keifer Sutherland before his run in with the Autograph chasers and Papperazzi, Denzel Washington my favorite actor, he was at morehouse college accepting an honary degree for dionating money, I told him how big of fan I was and he hooked my John Q movie poster up with nearly an every letter autograph, The Police all were cool except Sting, obviously, The WHO Pete and Roger( Personalized at the AP) Jennifer Lopez was at a radio station and gave the every letter instead of the JLO signature, there was only 3 of us there is why I even got a picture with her. Kate Hudson, Kurt Russell, Joe Pesci, Samuel L Jackson, As far as sports I met Michael Jordan at the old Lemeuix golf tournament in PA, Dan Marino, John Elway, Joe Montana, Jim Brown, Joe Namath, Bart Starr, Roger Staubach, Peyton Manning, Eli Manning (in College), Tony Dorsett, (I bought him a drink and he signed every thing I had, Magic Johnson, DR J, Lebron (in high school), Kobe, Shaq, Dwight Howard, Tracy Mccgrady, Tim Duncan, David Robinson, Carmelo Anthony, Albert Pujols, Cal Ripken (super nice guy, I have alot of ripken stories), Tony Gywnn, Dave Winfield, Derek Jeter, Reggie Jackson, Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Sidney Crosby, Those are some of my favorites that I have met and have actually signed. I have not met Clint Eastwood, Jack Nicholson, Robert Deniro, James Caan, Reese Witherspoon, Rachel Mccadams, but I hope to one day. I hope you enjoy reading this and if you are interested in an y stories let me know everyone tells me I should write a book. I have already got its name (rubbing elbows).

is Derek Jeter and Cal Ripken Jr. easy or difficult to get an in person autograph? and do either of them sign thru the mail?

derek jeter is pretty tough to get an autograph in person, he usually doesnt sign, if you are a kid though he will take the time, cal ripken jr is extremely nice and usually will sign whenever you see him ,although i know when he was playing he wold never sign at his hotel, i dont think either of them sign through the mail if they do they are most likely not real, cal ripken is getting paid now to sign his autograph and i know for sure jeter doesnt sign through the mail

Any idea where I can find an authentic Van Halen signed guitar that won't cost me an arm and a leg?

Favorites, Erin Tipon is very cool, at a show back in the 90's, myself and a buddy thats a fireman dressed Tipon up, full turnouts and helmet, used a ladder truck to take him up to the lights, pretending something was wrong, he ripped off his jacket up in the air and the crowd went wild, man did we all laugh afterwards...
Clint Eastwood at Pebble Beach, just standing next to him was unbelievable, to me, the only one bigger would have been the Duke!
Waylon Jennings, he comes off as hard core guy, I was waiting one night after a show, my reporter was draggin ass somewhere, he saw me and asked if I would like to wait on his bus, I sat at his table and did the interview solo, I was sweatin in places we won't talk about...
Richard Petty, in the pits at Sanoma, I told him thank you, my dad and I used to watch him together when I was kid, dad was a huge Dodge man, then we started talking cars, I told him about dads work car, a 1969 Dodge Coronet 440 6 pack with a mobile/radio phone, he laughed,very memorable...
Ron Howard at Pebble Beach when I was a kid, Happy Days was huge then and I grew up watching Opie, he was just as nice in person as he seems, very stand up....
George Bush JR, on a tarmac in 100 degree weather, he really is down to earth, regardless of your politics, the man means what he says and has a hard hand shake...
Stan Lee, he influenced my childhood with Spiderman, never quit! I thanked him and shook his hand..
Captain Scott O'Grady, downed Air Force pilot, very humble, he inspires the best in all of us and a real American Hero...
Toby Kieth, he arrived at a show early, before he was big, back in the mid 90's, we BS'd and played some hoops, down to earth, nice to see him do well...
Peter Fonda, com'on, he's easy rider, I pay homage!!!
Sonny Barger, met him at a bike run, he was signing his book, likes to talk to people, you are intimidated though...
Leonard Nimoy, very very nice, it's Spock for goodness sake and In Search of, the voice known around the world!
Steven Segal, outside LA airport, he parted his security people to take a picture with me, hard hand shake, very humble and nice...
Charles Manson, sat in on his 94 parole hearing for almost three hours, took still photo's that day, strange strange and yet brilliant, he's very smart and crazy at the same time, I wouldn't recommend it...
Dale Earnhardt sr, I stepped on his foot in the Vegas pits, he smiled and signed my press packet, it made me feel good even though I thought he may punch me, he's the man!
Shannon Sharpe, in the locker room in Colorado, he was naked! Not something you will forget anytime soon..
