This is a question Claims to Fame

Rob writes, "My photoshop claim to fame: the way the crop tool greys out the rest of the image? That was my idea. I sent it to the Abobe features request thing back in ooh probably about 1998. (After spending a frustrating day cropping images for a dull
website, and wishing the tool worked better.)"

What crappy claims to fame can you make?

When will I be famous...
Got a credit on an old school hip hop album “Full Force” by Full Force (solitary hit was “Alice, I Want You Just For Me!” – UK charts No.8, Jan 1986). I used to DJ and they were at a gig where I did a warm up before the main event and they heard me sample Martin Luther King’s “I Have A Dream” over another record. Although it wasn’t the most original idea ever, they told me they loved it and used it for a track called “Dream Believer”.
I get a small thank you/credit on the liner notes, but the fame didn’t change me one bit.

I get on the local news fairly often when I am called out (paramedic) to traffic crashes etc. My little girl loves seeing me on TV – especially because I have a secret-hello-signal that I do just for her.
She thinks I’m dead cool, but the truth will come out eventually…
