Recent stories by and about Jim Cripps

Why I want to meet Scarlett Johansson

She’s a talented actress, that is still underrated by too many critics and moviegoers. Even 50/50 is too low for acclaim.

How I met S. E. Hinton

Ms. Hinton came to my school and spoke about ‘The Outsiders’ and ‘Rumblefish.’ She also spoke a little about writing. She was probably the first celebrity I ever got an autograph from.

A story about Marshall Bell

Another person I met at a convention. While he was still in school, he and his class chose the colors for the new high school that he was going to next year. As luck would have, his family moved out of state before the next year started.

Why I admire Dorothy Parker

Ms. Parker will probably be the only dead person on my list. A one-of-a-kind satirist.

A story about John G. Hertzler

Crazy man. I met him at a convention, and he was trying to perfect his French accent.

A story about Bill Clinton

Well, I saw him, and was convinced that he should run for president. Of course, he did eventually.

A story about Marina Sirtis

It was really funny meeting her the first time, and really awkward meeting her the second time. She’s really nice and FUNNY!

A story about Cindy Crawford

She came to my Wal-Mart once. I was not impressed. She had a lot of make-up on, looking like a plastic doll. And I thought she would be taller.
