I wish I had been there to see this!
I am no longer a huge baseball fan by any means, but I was still saddened to hear the news that the great Kirby Puckett of the 1987, 1991 World Series Champion Minnesota Twins had died yesterday after a massive stroke.
I grew up during Kirby's hay-day and was a HUGE fan of the Minnesota Twins, especially Kirby. I grew up going to games with awesome season tickets....Puckett was my guy! I also attended both game #7's when the Twins won the World Series and there is nothing like the excitement of being the World Champs!! I also attended the special game in 1996 when fans said goodbye to Puckett after his announced retirement due to eye problems. Today our city mourns this baseball hero. Rest in Peace, Brother :)
You can read more about Kirby in this article in the Mpls Star Trib: Goodbye, Kirby.
Many of you know from my little brother Jeff's guest post last week that he was going to be doing a little security gig in Hollywood at a Celebrity Fashion Show.
Well he is back and here is what he had to say about the experience:
As recently as February 2006, I was asked by a friend to describe my favorite traveling experience.
I didn’t have an answer.
It wasn’t due to a lack of experience; I have a travel resume that would inflict jealousy into the hearts of all but the most seasoned of travelers.
While I’m only 24 years old, I have already amassed an all-star itinerary of locales. I have bared sweltering temperatures while running (literally) through the African Rift Valley.
I have been viewed as a giant in cities as cosmopolitan as Tokyo.
I have fallen in love with several continents, and felt at home with people whose genetic makeup represents my polar opposite. I am an ambassador to the nation of travel, and my people are the world.
Until recently I have never been able to quantify traveling experiences into a humanized ranking system. How can one assign values of finality to such an intangible experience?
That all changed when I spent this weekend in Hollywood.
At the risk of breaking rhythm of my philosophically laced sentences above, I am going to make an attempt to explain to you the merits of what I now consider my favorite traveling experience. I got to see celebrities!
While I don’t want to give you the perception that I am shallow, I feel it’s important to let you know that I thoroughly enjoyed being surrounded by celebrities. I’m not sure why I find celebrities as a source of enthrallment, it clearly defies logic.
As I explained to you earlier, I’m a computer guy. I should be relatively unphased by celebrity; I should continue with speaking in computer nerdery. 01101000 01101001 (That’s “hi” in binary).
However, I am sure that many of you readers are equally enchanted by the celebrity mystique. That may even be why you’re reading this particular post (other acceptable reasons are boredom and masochistic inclinations).
To document my hypnosis with Celebrity and Hollywood, I have posted my photos online at www.jeffsauer.com/hollywood.php.
Rather than bore you with pictures taken, and places visited, I will use my remaining space to summarize Hollywood’s impact. I realized that I am naïve. I guess I always knew that, but Los Angeles brings naivety to the forefront. I realized that celebrities come and go.
While being surrounded by people from “the business,” I quickly realized that celebrities (talent) have very little to do with an actual Hollywood production. They are merely pawns in the game.
I realized that there are more elements going into big-time productions than one can possibly fathom. For every super star (think Ashlee Simpson), there are 20 people responsible for their every move.
I realized that Hollywood isn’t nearly as beautiful as it seems. I commonly refer to myself as a man of average intelligence and below average looks. Prior to my Hollywood experience, I thought I’d be constantly embarrassed in Hollywood by people of greater beauty and power. I left feeling the exact opposite of these notions, and I ultimately realized that I’m overly self-conscious.
Last, I realized that Minnesota is way too damn cold! I need to move away, and soon!
Well, I’m glad that I could sum up my trip in ambiguity laced statements. For more lighthearted excerpts from my trip, follow the link to my website above, or simply visit my site: www.jeffsauer.com
There you are folks!!! Give Jeff some love by leaving him a comment here or by checking out his website! I had to include this pic of Jeff with Sheila E!
I speak often of my younger brother Jeff. This kid is pretty funny...cracks me up all the time. Jeff just spent the past two weeks in Florida (comes back to Minneapolis today) and then is flying out to Los Angeles tomorrow for a special opportunity. So I have asked him to be a "guest blogger". Hope you like! He has his own website/blog that he has kept for YEARS. He also owns his own web design company. Oh, and ladies, Jeff is single!
Brush with Celebrity By Jeff Sauer
I’m just an average Joe. Well, that’s not entirely true. My name is Jeff. One sentence into this and I’m already lying to you. This bothers me.
I pride myself in being an honest man, so I’m not sure why I have already lapsed in talking to you. People have called me sincere, and even honest. One time, I even think I overheard a guy at the gas station saying that I was trustworthy. In fact, before that President Lincoln guy came around, I was known by honest Jeff.
So, it bothers me when people think I’m lying when I tell them about my plans for this weekend. You see, this weekend, I will be traveling to Los Angeles, Hollywood to be exact, to be a security guard at a Celebrity Fashion Show.
I know nothing about security.
While I’m a sizable man, the notion of working security has never occurred to me at any point in my life. I work with computers. I’m a geek. I design web pages. I’m a dork. I think that playing with databases and working with numbers is fun. I’m a nerd.
I am an all-purpose pseudo intellectual with a penchant for the inane. That’s what I do.
That is why you may find it strange that when the opportunity arose for me to rub shoulders with celebrities, enjoy a backstage point of view to an exclusive event, and do something completely out of the ordinary, I volunteered my services in about 2.2 seconds.
Actually, I doubt that you find that strange at all. You may very well take the same opportunity if presented. I was presented this opportunity through one of my business partners, who is a former security guard for the artist Prince. While he has since retired from being a security guard for celebrities, he still has ties to many celebrities and still does security for special events. He was selected by his good friend Sheila E to be head of security for her fashion show, and he gladly accepted. He then needed to round up a series of volunteers to help staff the event, and I was an invitee. The rest is history.
I am excited for the event, and I have a feeling it is going to go very well. My lone inhibition is that I literally know NOTHING about security. While I’ve been assured that this will be an easy event, I still wonder if I’m getting in over my head. I will find out soon enough.
It’s hard to point out a single celebrity that I’m most interested in meeting, they are all great. I am probably most interested in meeting Olivia Wilde, Angelina Jolie, Bill Cosby, and Gabrielle Union. Check back soon to see how everything goes!
Good luck Jeff and Have fun!! I wish you could get some good pics, but that'll probably be hard to do. We want to hear all the details when you get back!
Peeps....give Jeff some love!
Johnny Depp that is. Yes its true, I have had a crush on him since 1987-88? when I first saw him on 21Jump Street. Those brown eyes have always made me melt. And his cheek bones?! Chiseled to perfection! Not to mention that he is somewhat of a bad boy!! Johnny has played many diverse roles in the last 20 years of his career and I think that just shows how talented of an actor he is. My favorites of his (at least as far as admiring his looks!) are Don Juan de Marco and Pirates of the Caribbean.
So why did I choose today to bring up my crush on Mr. Depp? Because Charlie and the Chocolate Factory come out today, of course! I haven't yet seen this movie but I did go out and buy it at Target over my lunch hour. The original Willy Wonka was one of my favorite movies as a kid and I know this version is like the super-psychadelic version. I can't wait!
Who else loves Johnny? What is your favorite movie of his??
What can I say about Dave Chappelle except that he is freakin' hilarious!!! The 2nd season of The Chappelle's Show just came out this week and I had to have it the day it was released. I was only able to catch the first three episodes last night, but he had me ROFLMAO for each of his "sketches". He likes to make fun of racism and does it in such a way that it is funny no matter what race you come from! He also makes fun of popular celebrities, all in good fun, of course! (You know I love Prince, but he did a hilarious Sketch of him last season that was too funny!) If you haven't ever seen it and like a good laugh, I highly recommend it! The sketches are funny to watch over and over again, especially with a group of friends!
"I'm Rick James, B**ch!"
Okay, so I must be TOTALLY obessessed with meeting Prince someday, because I just dreamt about meeting him again last night for like the 30th time in the past 5 years. Seriously!!!! I do not know why I dream it so often or what it means, but I think I am secretly hoping it happens someday. I have loved his music since I was 8 years old, have seen him in concert (with front row seats I have to add!) and I have even been to Paisley Park several times. But never have I met the Man!
