Default Had dinner with James Hetfield last night
He just didn't realize it.
He, his wife and their kids sat next to us at the steak house we were at in D.C.

Snagged a few grainy cell pics as I didn't want to bother him and his family.
Seemed like they were a fun bunch.

I'll post up Utah quality shots later when I'm settled.

Gene Hackman has a house across the street from me.

The guy next to him is a friend of the Bush's, Jeb stayed at the house a few weeks ago.

The guy that owns Papa Johns has a house the next street over.

I've seen Dick Cheney at the Haliburton House across the canal at least half a dozen times.

Damn subterranean Metro.

I'm still mobile, but I can shoot them to you if you can link to them.
They are fuzzy and not much to write home about though...

Kick the Papa Johns' guy in the nuts for me next time you see him. They used to serve half assed edible pizzas, now I won't even eat that shit if I'm drunk at 3 am and starving.

If somebody can pm me an email addy that can host the pics, that would be most excellent. I won't be home to post them until tomorrow.
