Orbital and Stephen Hawking - they performed at the Paralympic opening ceremony together. Unexpected, but wonderful.

I kind of feel like Alice Cooper should be exempted from this thread. He's met, and been photographed with, every person on the planet.

1966--someone posted it on Facebook today. I don't know if anyone's linked to this already, but here's a whole Tumblr devoted to the subject:

from his first autobiography The Godfather of Soul: "I don't think endorsing Nixon was a very smart thing to do," says record executive Hal Neely. "I didn't do it to be smart," Brown replies.

After Brown's endorsement, Nixon was corrupt enough to have the government help him with some legal troubles, having the FCC stop investigating his radio stations and getting an IRS case transferred down to civil court.

His meeting with Strom Thurmond happened after Lee Atwater was one of the few people to visit him in jail.

Chewbacca, child actor Gary Coleman, porn star Ron Jeremy

Everyone's noticed Gary Coleman's not wearing a hat, right
― Oneohchex Point Charlie (Spectrist), Thursday, 13 September 2012 07:40 (eleven years ago) link
I noticed it's not Peter Mayhew. Chewbacca's probably under 6' in that picture.

Is that from that really right-wing movie where Chris Farley's brother plays Michael Moore and Gary Coleman throws a sponge at an off-screen "Barack" to finish washing a car?
― pplains, Thursday, 13 September 2012 14:01 (eleven years ago) link
Tuomas sez: who are Chris Farley, Michael Moore and Barack Obama and why should I have heard of them?
― passive-aggressive display name (aldo), Thursday, 13 September 2012 19:02 (eleven years ago) link
Apparently it's from something called "Midgets vs Mascots".
Here is some trivia for this film, from imdb.com
• The gator is fighting a real live alligator. • During the milk chug scene, several people dining at the restaurant got sprayed with vomit and fecal matter. The producers paid their dry cleaning bill to help smooth things over. • Gary Coleman's last film.

It's really H.R., but I'm having a harder time determining whether or not that's Brooke in the photo.
