Default Billy Crystal and Patrick Stewart IN-person

Went down to the sarasota film festival and was able to get Billy Crystal and
Patrick Stewart to sign items for me.
Patrick Stewart was first this morning and was being honored at a special
lunch. He arrived just before it started and was actually very pleasent(I had
heard that he can be grumpy) He signed a professor X photo for me, and a Star
Trek Figure for my partner in crime. Very nice Sig.

Billy Crystal was there because his daughter Lindsay has directed a
documentary. Went to try and catch him at a reception being thrown but he was
limoed into a closed off parking garage. Got a little nervous, because as we
waited at the theatre people from the reception started showing up telling how
grumpy he was, He arrived with his daugther and did an interview on the Red
carpet and then came right over and started signing, very nice guy, signed one
per person all the way down the line, talking and joking with people.
Lindsay then came over and signed the movie poster for her film that they
handed out.

A very good day, hopefully able to get back down there saturday the rumor is
they are trying to get Dustin Hoffman or Peter O'toole to come to there black
tie dinner, fingers crossed.

GOod luck to everyone
