Interesting night last night...

Well this might get long so be prepared...


I call my a budy of mine who i tend to fish with often and he's like, what ya up too, and i am like nothing really same ole ****... So he invites me to go watch his cousins highschool bball game and i am like that cool nothing better to do and the two schools are really good this year and quite a few good players being recruited by some colleges and what not anyways back to the story ... so on the way to the game in the car finding this old high school we played against back in my days and buddy mentions this is the cousin who is on the soap operas and i am like, really? so we get there and get our seats and these 2 guys and 3 good looking girls come up the stands and sit behind me and buddy turns around and starts making conversation and i am like is he picking up on them or what I have no clue who the heck they are.... conversation is going good and i am like there is no way in hell hes this smooth! So then THEN he introduces me to his cousins 1 is like 23-24, 2nd is like 21-22 ish and third isstill in highschool but sure as heck dont look like it being she was 5'10 and looked as old as her sisters...

So i meet the 1st one... Alexis Thorpe cool gal , down to earth and really easy going and we bs during the game and she was truly pretty cool...

I end up talking to her dad as we are watching my buddys cousin, which is his son play, and how his sons coach and I use to play against each other back in the day and yada yada... cool guy and man does make dealing with 3 daughters and a wife look easy... 1 is in tv and movies, 2nd infomercials, son is a dam good ball player and smart kid, and a wife ....

So after the game we shoot the **** with the coach i played ball against and catch up, then head out for food afterwards... So we head to a small resteraunt and me, buddy, the 3 cousins, male cousin (ball player), his mom, and dad, and the 2 guys that came with the girls...

So service sucked at the place, and we are all shooting random conversation talking about funny, and good movies and etc... and well the inevitable comes up about alexis... whats new on your plate and so on ..

Well she turns out to be or use to be on the soap opera "Days of Our Lives" for awile maybe a couple years I dont know I am a guy.... and just finished doing a movie with Paris Hilton call Sorority Girls or something... here is a link http://www.southbeach-usa.com/scene/...sc/hilton1.htm info on alexis www.alexis-thorpe.com

Well her sister is in a bunch of informericals and is getting married next month which is the middle aged one like 21-22ish k ... to one of the guys that came along...

Well the other guy was a smaller guy and really really fit and etc, and some conversation comes up and asking him about racing and I am thinking he looks like a motor sport kinda racing guy and then it quickly changes to he is a pro marathon runner like runs long distance races for a living... and i look at him and kinda dumb founded... you mean you like RUN RUN like run races for sole income and he's like yea! I am still dumbfounded but ok hes cool and so hes so we get into the conversation as a group of running in the cold and how he got back from new york doing some realty show in new york city... Well yep its a small world... turns out he is a bachelor on ABC's "The Bachelorette" Pic http://abc.go.com/primetime/bachelor...11_360x240.jpg Bio of him is http://abc.go.com/primetime/bachelorette/bios/josh.html

So we finish up dinner and everyone was really down to earth and easy going which was cool and just ends up one of them nights that the unexpected kinda just happens out of no where... weirdes part they live like a couple miles from me... except bacheoreete boy whos about 30 miles from me. Its crazy how small a world it is... So yea theres my night in a nut shell, and now i have the dad as a potential client of mine as well..

Wow, what a night you had! The world certainly is a small place. Great way to make business contacts as well!

Isn't California a great place to live? Gosh, we should have our own section for "Star" encounters, like when you go to Starbucks and the guy that kinda looks like George Clooney actually IS George Clooney. :icon_eek: :aiwebs_01

So I'm guessing that Josh doesn't win on the Bachlorette, then!

I shouldn't admit to this, but I watched Alexa Thope when she was on the soap The Young and the Restless. She's a beautiful gal, isn't she?
