Tenuous claims to fame
They have to be true, but apart from that the more tenuous the better. I'll begin.

My mate used to babysit for John Inverdale.

I have also stood behind Iwan Thomas at the peak of his 400m running career in a queue for a ride at Chessington World of Adventures.

Follow that.

I've been on television in two consecutive years participating in the National Spelling Competition which was an annual event about 8 years ago. Came in 3rd and 9th, heh.

How sad is that :/

Erm

It was an absolutely terrible general knowledge quiz show on the tv , I think in the 80's. It was hosted by Jane someone (Franchi?) and I can't remember much else about it because I was quite young at the time :/

Right, I'll take it that it was the 'Blockbusters' of its time.

Unless of course, it was the equivalent of Mastermind for kids in which case it is quite likely to have been the most amusing programme ever.

It's still the best name for a title I've ever heard.

My father's first cousins are the Gatlin Brothers -- Larry Gatlin being the most famous. They are Country and Western musicians.

I am very distantly related to Daniel Boone and Richard Nixon through the same family line. Nearest ancestor by marriage was about 250 years ago.

My mother thought we were related to Catherine the Great, but she was wrong.

I was on Belgian televison twice last year.

Le Soir, the largest French-language Belgian daily newspaper, did a very short piece on me with my picture last year.

I won third place in the Math Counts competition between seven schools when I was 12-years old.

I was at the department store and the woman at the cash register said, "Your the guy who does the columns for the newspaper, aren't you?"

I was the king of the elementary school when I was eight-years old along with Kimberly Perez, my girlfriend at the time.

That's all I can think of.

This brings up even more, someone who I help run a sports camp in the summer has played with Incubus.

His dad runs a studio and lives off the royalties from the guitar parts he played in loads of really famous songs.

I used to play cricket alot with Robin and Chris Smith, and occasionally Cardigan O'Connor.

My Grandparents are family friends.

I actually bowled Robin out once.

I was 8 at the time.

Heh.

I went to the same school as Rowan Atkinson and Tony Blair, and one of my teachers (who is a friend of my father) told Atkinson to go into comedy.

I go to the same college that Ali G went to.

Whilst playing hockey in Enfield, someone smacked the ball of the pitch, straight towards Mike Gatting (ex-England cricket captain), who attempted to stop the ball with his outstretched foot.

The ball went straight past his foot and between his legs. On seeing this I shouted 'Nothing's changed since you stopped playing then, Mr Gatting !!'

At this point he turned round and gave me the finger.

There used to be an american show called "Small Wonder" featuring a lifelike robot who was about ten years old. My aunt had a role on that show as a foster care worker. She's also had some commercials and small one time roles on tv.


I also met some actors from Xena including Ted Raimi who is the brother of Sam Raimi director of the Evil Dead series and Spiderman.

-o|DarkJedi|o- is infamous around these parts
some not so tenuous, but amusing all the same...

I made 'Cliff' from 'Gay Dad' cry.

I abused Boy Zone live on Radio One for 4 mins whilst their manager tried to cut me off and Simon Mayo flapped about in a shock/panic... Boyzone later 'thunderbolted' me my crimes against 'pop'.

Adam Faiths wife 'Manon' runs a record label, i spoke to her a couple of times about getting a deal.

'Duffy' from BBC1's casualty was at one my gigs.

At the TFI Friday xmas special, Robbie Williams winked at my girlfriend, and Nick Han**** gave me a ****ty remark when he was late for the show and being heckled by me and my mates.

Neil Webb (ex portsmouth/forest/england footy star) wanted to shag my mum.

Frankie Howard asked my nan to marry him before 'coming out'

Upon leaving for AC Milan (from Portsmouth) I told Mark Hately not to worry and that im sure they'd let him come back to pompey soon... He thanked me didn't break my childhood vision of the fact pompey footy club wasn't the centre of the universe...

I met Chris Eubank in a resturant in Brighton 2 summers ago. I told him my mate was a huge fan, and got him to phone him up heh... my mate thought it was me doing an impression of him (i do a good one) and started abusing him... comedy etc
