Pass the Bonaduce on the Left Hand Side

Living in Los Angeles makes it inevitable that at some point, somewhere, you will recognize someone famous while doing one of the mundane tasks of life.

[I must admit, while living in the San Fernando Valley I saw more famous people I recognized than I do now, living in Los Angeles proper...]

My sighting is a simple one. Pushing a cart out of Trader Joe's at LaBrea and Third I almost ran smack into Danny Bonaduce as he got off his Harley motorcycle. He stared at me, smiled and nodded his head in recognition. Not sure why, it's not like I was winding up to say something to him... But I s'pose that's good manners on his part and I gave him a nod back. Seemed a pleasant enough fellow as he walked by - though I do wonder what he was going into Trader Joe's for.

I know - this would be much better if I'd taken a photo of his motorcycle...

[Sorry for the lame title, but it amuses me. I'm sure some of you will get the cultural reference.]
