I m not sure what you Guys did this weekend but once again i spent my time hobnobbing with major International celebrities despite the fact ism not actually sure what the word hobnobbing Means. You Are going to be very jealous when you hear this but on saturday night i got to rub shoulders with legendary comedian David Steinberg. Seriously it was just me Steinberg and approximately 1,000 other people who attended a fundraising event at the Winnipeg convention Centre in support of the Canadian museum for human rights. So our shoulders were pretty close most of the night. The Winnipeg born Steinberg was the evenings Star attraction and he regaled us with anecdotes from his impressive career including a record 140 appearances on the tonight show and weekly lunches with get ready to gasp Groucho Marx. As a respected professional journalist i agreed to attend the event despite the very real risk i would be forced to consume vast amounts of free food and alcohol. Please do not thank me. I am paid to defend the Public cos right to know. Anyway the real highlight of the evening came at the end of the event when a few dozen of us were ushered into a much smaller room for a Chance to meet Steinberg in person and get a free autographed copy of his new Book the Book of David. As you can imagine Steinberg was thrilled to meet me wrote a very personal and sincere message in my copy of his Book and nothing even remotely embarrassing happened. A thatus what happened in an alternate universe. In this universe Steinberg strode into the room and was standing right beside me at the exact moment that i in my constant quest for free food noticed there were hundreds of delicious shrimp cocktails sitting on a nearby Buffet table. Helpful tip for readers the next bit will make More sense if you Are aware that David Steinberg while being a huge comedy Genius is physically a very tiny human being in the sense that he would easily fit into one of my pockets getting Back to our Story Steinberg was inches away when i oblivious to his presence glanced Over his head at the Buffet table and happily shouted for everyone in the room to hear hey look at the shrimp fortunately no one noticed. I am of course moshing. I have been All that embarrassed were it not for my wife and a group of friends who began pointing at me turning a delightful Shade of purple and laughing so hard i was afraid the eyed have an Accident on the carpet. You called David Steinberg a shrimp is what they All helpfully cackled. Still things ended quite Well. Steinberg even agreed to write the following moving dedication in my copy of his Book to Doug. Boga Boga i know what you Are thinking. You Are thinking it would be difficult to make a bigger goof out of yourself in front of a major visiting celebrity. Well once again you could not be More wrong. As proof i will Tell you what happened to my Boss Bob last week when he was invited to watch the nil exhibition game in a luxury Box that was literally teeming with dignitaries and retired athletes such As former hockey great Mark Messier. What happened was Bob spotted an athletic looking fellow at the other end of the suite and assuming this must be a retired hockey player walked Over to introduce himself. Hello ism Levar Burton is what the fellow said to my Boss. Helpful tip for readers you know Levar Burton. I know Levar Burton. But Bob is not big on to. He was totally oblivious that Levar Burton is the famous actor who starred As kunta Kinte in the miniseries Roo Tsas Geordi la forge on Star trek the next generation and As the beloved Host on the award winning childrens show Reading Rainbow not knowing Levar Burton from Burton Cummings Bob smiled blankly. Hello he said trying to remember what position Levar Burton played. Are you from Winnipeg no Levar said ism from out of town. So they chatted for a while and eventually Levar mentioned that Mark Messier who was in the Box with them had once appeared on his to show. Of said Bob youve got a show yes the legendary actor replied Reading Rainbow this did not Register with my Boss. And what Channel is that on Bob asked. Pcs Levar said. Has it been on Long Bob wondered. Twenty five years Levar explained. Sensing that he should feel deeply embarrassed Bob politely excused himself and tried to hide among the rest of the guests All of whom happily told him How excited they were to be in the same room As that Guy from Star trek ism sure my buddy wished someone would beam him out of there but it could have been much worse. They could have been serving shrimp. Doug. Speirs free press. My. Ca it was just a Little joke. And ism sorry its snowing.
