I am not even sure why she chose to follow me. People have different reasons, and most of them end up dropping off because they are bored with things I have said or posted, especially news articles from DU.

But we shall see, and I haven't actually gotten too much of a response from her as yet. Thanks again.

We had a really nice conversation on twitter, about Asian foods. She, like myself, is a huge fan of Nasi Lemak and promised on her next trip to San Francisco to try some of the Asian restaurants that I suggested. She seems a lot of fun and not stuffy like other Hollywood actresses I have met, who won't even talk to their fans.

two lovely young women - Chu was in the Red Dawn remake.

I have a few minor actors from The Walking Dead (Big Tiny for one) follow me and some youtuber that my daughter knows, but nothing major. I think the biggest "follower" of mine is Skybound Entertainment - Robert Kirkman's Walking Dead company.

I think they are the first actors following me. Most of those celebrities are Japanese bands, like ...I can't believe An cafe follows me!


and of course Chu's day, i love them!


and also Rie aka Suzaku


and JinnyOops who I just love!



And the girls from Nyon Pink...


Been pretty lucky so far, with meeting up with celebrities on Twitter!

And oh!! Did I mention Margaret Cho??

Of course, half the fandom of TWD on Twitter are women hoping Norm Reedus/Daryl will follow them.

I was happy that the Skybound site retweeted me the other day and I ended up with 400+ likes and around 100 retweets. (It was an article on Andrew Lincoln, whose uncle, I found out, is Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull)

I'm hoping for Michonne/Danai Gurira, as I saw on Twitter she was doing some sort of Clinton/Kaine event recently.

pretty impressed about Margaret Cho.

I never expected someone of her caliber to follow me. She even lets me call her "sis" but hey that's an Asian thing, yeah?

is the people that follow you and then drop you soon afterwards. I think a lot of people do that looking for a quick follow-back.

I use that "Who unfollowed me on twitter" cause its free, and I see all these people who I have never seen before, who have followed me than dropped me 10 seconds later. Its so strange!!

ちょっと変な!
I don't know why they do that, a mistake maybe? I don't know why that happens.

He's married to Ian's daughter.

Here's Andrew on Letterman (the IA bit comes at about 2:30).



Warning: Andrew is English!! He doesn't speak with his "Rick" accent.

I'm counting the days till TWD comes back...

that was pretty much the highlight of my twitter world. And If I never get any other recognition that will sustain me until death because I totally adore her.
