I love to name drop!!1! Nothing real close. But my step-mother's cousin's husband is Dom DeLuise. Her cousin is pretty famous in her own right too, and of course the kids. When my dad married my step-mom, Dom DeLuise sent my brother and I presents of children's books he had written. But I never had the pleasure of meeting him. Oh, and I talked to his wife via e-mail when I was thinking about getting into theatre. I thought that was very nice of her to give me advice. I'm also a decendant of the Younger brothers who rode with outlaw Jesse James.
