Cool Me & Mel B.

So - my last days at NPR are coming to a close...

The show that I was managing editor for has premiered and I'm pretty much done (it was a show called Intern Edition put together by all us interns)

It was a big hit...and I'm exited..

Anyway, yesterday I got to meet Mel Brooks! I was so excited, it was really cool watching Susan Stamberg to the interview..and he was very nice, very cool...and he let me take a photo with him on the elevator (he was in a hurry to leave...or rather his publicists were in a hurry to get him out - he was very friendly and social haha...)

He tousled my hair after our meeting...and went on his merry way...

It was exciting for me...I'm attaching the picture of us....

Cool, Deanna. Did you sing & dance The Inquisition song with him?

When I read the thread title I thought you meant Mel Blanc, and I kept thinking I know he's dead.

LOL...no..my sister asked the same question!! haha..unfortunately I'm one of the newer Mel fans which means I'm more versed in the worlds of Space Balls and Robin Hood Men in Tights...though I did enjoy Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein and High Anxiety...

But yeah...and I wasn't going to include this, but now feel it may be too amusing to not bring up...

I was leaning against the wall of the elevator with my hands resting on the elevator rails. When I asked me for the picture he said, "Sure!" and backed up to stand next to me..only one issue...when he backed up he did so right in to my hand...so I totally (and accidentally) touched Mel Brooks' ass....maybe that's why he tousled my hair the way he did haha...

How funny about accidentally groping Mel!! When I saw Mel B...I immediately thought you meant from the Spice Girls. LOL I liked them, sue me.

Congrats on meeting Mel, Deanna!

AAAAhhhhhh! You're so lucky! You and Mel look cute. Too bad about not singing the inquisition song . My best friend in seventh grade drew a picture of that scene on the back of my yearbook, we had laughed about it so much. How fun! When i first read the post I thought you meant Mel. B. from the spice girls and i was like "that's weird. who cares about her?"

I thought you meant one of the Spice Girl's, isn't one of them Mel B or Mel C or D or E or something like that! Congrates!

Is that "underrated super hottie babe" Anne Bancroft? I hear her left hook is underrated as well...

Congrats Deannna! Mel Brooks is a genious....I loved him on "Curb Your Enthusiasm" this year! Larry and Mel...was a combo....

For all you "Robin Hood Men in Tights" fans, my unlce met Richard Lewis on a plane and he told him how him and I watch him on Curb and all that good stuff, and how we loved him in robin hood, and he said, "Wow, Someone actually saw that movie?!" LMAO!!!! He is too funny!

"Sir, wasn't your mole....on the other side?"
"I HAVE A MOLE?!"

I never saw Robin Hood, but in HOTW I like "Don't be saucy with me, Bernaise."
