Semi-Pro
Tonight I’m going to the Toronto premiere of Will Ferrell’s latest sports comedy, Semi-Pro. I’m pretty excited to see the movie and hope it lives up to it’s hilarious trailer.
Also, my pass says that the famous “fro” will be in attendance. Not sure if he’ll just be sitting in the audience or whether he’ll get up and talk. Perhaps I’ll have the opportunity to meet him and, if past celebrity encounters are any indication, it will go like this:
Me: “Hi, Mr.Ferrell. Great movie..really funny”
Will Ferrell: “Thanks…..(awkward silence)….Well, I should get going.”

Sounds like when I met Jesse Keeler of Death from Above 1979.
Me: “I love your music, super good!!!!”
JK: “Great” [walks away]

Sounds even more like when I met the kid from “Ready or Not” that tried to defame Amanda and Busy on their first day of high school…she was in a production of RENT that I saw….
Me: “You were in “Ready or Not.” You tried to bring Amanda and Busy down!”
Her: “I have to go stand over there now.” [doesn't move]

I once met “Randy” from the Trailer Park Boys.. and I said to him, I said, “Hey! My name’s actually Randy!” To which he replied “Awesome.” He wasn’t wearing a shirt.
