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?

Brushes with fame
My dad was at separate press confrence-y things for Prince Charles and Bill Clinton when they came to LA many, many years ago, and has the pictures (somewhere) to prove it.

I saw American Idiot, er, Idol judge Paula Abdul at Honolulu Int'l. airport when she was still famous for singing (so it was a looooooong time ago); I'd also met ice skater Michelle Kwann whilst she was ice skating.

My most recent brush with fame was when I went to Las Vegas last Dec. for my birthday. I was walking around the giant mall at Cesar's Palace when suddenly there was a massive crowd gathered around a store, blocking almost the entire hallway. I asked a security guard what was going on and he said that Britney Spears was shopping in there. It turns out that was when she (in)famouly got married for half a day! I didn't see her, which was fine by me - it's rude to shut down stores and cause fire hazards.
