Famous people get enough from the paparazzi they want to come to a safe place to come and talk tortoise, not to talk about how they became famous, what it's like.. Etc.

But this is just a forum. Wouldn't it be less threatening to tell people? I guess I just say this cause I like when famous people talk to normal people. Makes me feel like not all famous people are jerks.

Famous people are normal people. We all put our pants on the same way, we all go to the bathroom, all the same. They just chose a different job then the rest. It's the ones who didn't pick that as their job, that makes a big deal out of them. Personally, I am not one to get caught up in the "famous" frenzy. Too many of them are drunks and druggies, and sleeps and marries whatever moves. No thanks. My morals are way to high. Not a big fan.

I know we all put our pants on the same way, my manservant puts mine on one leg at a time, just like all the normal people

Would they have to be an expert at french kissing?

Would you volunteer to grade them on their kissing?

Sure, the female contestants

Nope, then how would we know who was the better kisser, if you only did part of the contestants?

I've met some cool relaxed famous people and some stuck up famous people. That's all I was getting at. I obviously understand they're just human.

No one I know puts their pants on one leg at a rime- that is really 'special' (?)

(Actually, I am just trying to be nice. I fear dmmj has lost his mind. A 'rime' is either a coating of ice or other material, or a part of a multi-syllabic word. I am really not sure what either has to do with getting dressed in the morning, but I think I am now afraid of him!)

Why do you have the feeling all famous people are jerks? They're usually just painfully normal people with extremely interesting jobs, at least the ones I've known are that way. I think the only time they are jerks is when they get tired of everyone always harassing them and asking what it's like to be famous. That has to get old fast, especially if all you want to do is talk about tortoises.

Shelly's mom, I don't think all famous people are jerks. Please see my above comment.

Sweet, I'm gonna read it! I've got some biological science pubs out myself, except they're about fish, parasites, and microbes (attached). I do work with some hymenopteran researchers down the hall, though.

It depends on what you mean by "famous." If you mean famous as in "Hollywood Star," then you may not find one (at least anyone who is willing to reveal him/herself). If by famous you mean "most known" here at the forum, there are many like Tom, Wellington, Aldabraman, DMMJ, and a host of others. If by famous you mean "outstanding accomplishments," then I think all tort owners, breeders, tort lovers, and all our members are famous.
