People you found on Facebook?

I found quite a few friends here on FB but the one person that I didn't expect to find was Kurt Thomas. Yes ~ he of Gymkata fame.

I've found a couple of directors---no big names---who have graciously answered my questions about their movies. I won't say who, but it is possible to contact people in the film business on Facebook if you have a legitimate reason to.

I found one of my favorite singer/songwriters (he's not performing full time anymore). I sent him a note just thanking him for the enjoyment I've gotten from his music over the years and letting him know that I still listen to his songs. He sent me back a very nice thank you for my message. It was a rather cool thing for him to do.

I'm friends with Trevor and Andrew last time I checked. They are the only ones who know who I am! I trust you gentlemen not to expose my real name and I am being serious here.

Haven't found anyone from here, but found a couple people.
Evan Wecksell- singer/comedian, been featured on VH1 and E!. Actually talk to him quite a bit, and he sent me some stuff in the mail.
The Blue Meanie- a relatively "Local" pro wrestler from the Philly area. I say "relatively local" as he was once signed to the big leagues (WWE), but is now strictly in this area. Met him at a bar a few times too.
Lloyd Kaufman- Well, it's his official account, but I dunno if it's actually Lloyd logging in or just some employee of Troma.
Weird Al Yankovic- He has personal pics up from his home life, so it's actually him. Answered some questions in e-mail. While we're far from actual friends, it's cool he answered.
Big Daddy Graham- Comedian. Now hosts a sports-talk radio show. Turns out he's married to a friend of my mom's, which my mom failed to tell me until I mentioned that I had his cd and talked to him on Facebook.

I'm friends with Trevor, Newt, Derf, Andrew, JJ80, BTM and more...

Newt · July 08, 2010, 07:08:11 AM

I have not yet gone looking for anyone other than friends from the past. But FB makes 'suggestions' and at times I am taken aback at who my friends know!

Derf · July 08, 2010, 08:59:57 AM

I'm friends with Newt, Trevor, Ash, Doggett and Paula from this site. And as of this morning, Trekgeezer.

A friend of mine joined the Julie Brown FB page and made a wisecrack about her acting skills, which she apparently took offense to, or at least made a crack back at him. She apparently has a lot of free time these days...

Raffine · July 08, 2010, 07:42:58 PM

I found the person who was my best buddy in elementary school. We were both rabid 'Monster Kids' and shared a love of Famous Monster of Filmland magazine, Aurora monster models, and horror movies from DRACULA to FROGS.

Figuring he had (unlike me) outgrown this stuff long ago, I was de-lighted to find out he's an university English professor specializing in horror and supernatural fiction!

HappyGilmore · July 08, 2010, 08:58:34 PM

Didn't know people here had a Facebook.

Added some friends from another forum on my Myspace (which gets used once a month to let people know I'm alive). And I met some friends from the Weird Al forum at his concert, which was fun. First time I can say I met people from a forum.

This is exactly one of the reasons why I don't have facebook! I don't want everyone I know to know who I know and I don't always want to know who they know..

I've only just signed up to Facebook, having resisted all this time. As I only have internet access at work, it's not the kind of site I would frequent regularly.

I only have 3 friends but I don't know that many people. All my years of being deliberately anti-social have come back to bite me, I think!

The 3 people who are my friends either don't frequent Facebook that regularly or they live too far away for me to catch up for a coffee.

As for this place, I'm not friends with anyone, but Trevor did send me a nice Happy Birthday email for my.....well......birthday

You can always friend me on FB: just look for Trevor Moses and if you see a pic of a guy with a Cookie Monster, that be me.
