    I saw Wayne Brady at California Adventure about a year and a half ago, he was being lead around with some people and CM's by the restaurant that's next to Soarin'

    Of course, some celebrity performers (and back in the day they had some great ones on their stages, like the Temptations and Duke Ellington). Also, the King Family (not quite in the same league!).

    Weirdest sighting: Mason Reese. For those old enough to remember, he did Underwood Devilled Ham commercials in the early 70's and was hot for a while. Weird looking kid who was an actual dwarf, I think. Anyway, saw him and his family at the Matterhorn in the days when it was the longest line at the park, cracking up the CM at the turnstile and convincing him to let them skip the 2-hour line. Having just waited that 2 hours to get to the chalet, we voiced our displeasure all the way down the mountain when we finally got on, knowing that he was in a bobsled nearby.

    Ah, memories, memories.

    Then there was this middle eastern guy who was surrounded by a posse of very serious looking body guards, and a couple of Disneyland escorts with dark glasses and earphones. You would have thought the U.S. President was there, but it was just some rich, self important oil sheik! It was such a comical scene, we laughed out loud when they walked by.

I was mortified. I also had Michael Eisner on my boat. When they were having a Make A Wish benefit at the park, I met Marie Osmond backstage and also Malcolm Jamal Warner (Theo from Cosby Show). He was very nice and hung out with all the cast members during their breaks.
