Place: Bourgeois Pig coffeeshop
Celeb: well, read on...

In atypical behavior and in sheer coincidence, I was sitting outside the Bourgeois Pig tonight sipping a Cricket Cola and smoking Sherman lights. What possessed me to go out and hang w/ the Franklin strip fatally hip, I cannot say. Anyway, the valet guys were busy pulling cars up to the curb. That's when I noticed a Sportage pull up. It's one of those lower priced, quasi-SUV's. A group of four modest looking young women and a sly young man walk up to the Sportage. I recognized the gentleman from LOTR. Funny enough, someone earlier had said, "Hey, there's that guy from the Lord of The Rings movie" and I thought he was messing around. It turns out it WAS Elijah Wood. Is this sliver of the Franklin strip really such a draw that it would attract someone of Mr. Wood's caliber? Apparently so. Anyway, hasn't fame held him hostage yet? Who does he think he is walking around town like that, posing like some lesser celebrity who wouldn't be mobbed by mindless throngs. But then again that anonymous voice couldn't even remember his name so maybe he is a "smaller" star than say a "Brad Pitt" (but certainly not duller) whose name seems to roll off our tongues easier than our own names. Glad "that guy" was enjoying himself. Knock on wood, Mr. Frodo.
