I'll go first. My family has seen Ray Bourque twice on STT. Once in the airport and once at Duffy's two years apart. I believ he may own on STT.

WHEN??? O my gosh, my son would be THRILLED to see him

Connie got a picture of him on STT last week, but it's only from the back...

So does Kenny still hang there? I heard he had sold his properties.

OMG - I'm speachless

Honestly, I've seen Kenny on pictures, but he is not at all famous here in Sweden. I had never heard his name before SOTB and nobody I've asked at home have heard his name either.

They spotted him last year in August on their way home at the airport.

My BIL saw him and his family at Duffys about 3 or 4 years ago, again I think in August. Ray left the kids and his kids got the full Duffy's treatment.

Alan Alda, Nancy Grace, Kenny Chesney, Real Housewives of NY, Kyra Sedgwick, and to help you with your 6 degrees of separation game, Kevin Bacon. There's been more, but I can't remember them. I only remember these people because they have been in our store or I've been in the same restaurant when they were there.

I've seen a fair amount of celebrities here but for some reason the person I was most excited about seeing was Davy Jones from the Monkees.

Ron really enjoyed seeing Mohammed Ali.

I met Ray Borque when I was in high school. He came to Colorado to win a Stanley Cup.

Of course this has nothing to do with seeing anyone in the islands, it's just been a while since I've heard that name. I forget for you New Englanders it's like talking about a god.

Ruth, where was Davy when you saw him?

Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings
Of the bluebird as she sings.
The six o'clock alarm would never ring.
But it rings and I rise,
Wipe the sleep out of my eyes.
My shavin' razor's cold and it stings.

Cheer up, Sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.

You once thought of me
As a white knight on a steed.
Now you know how happy I can be.
Oh, and our good times start and end
Without dollar one to spend.
But how much, baby, do we really need.

Cheer up, Sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.
Cheer up, Sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.

[Instrumental interlude]

Cheer up, Sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.
[Repeat and fade]

though I was more of a mike and peter gal meself.....
