And how many movie stars? Supermodels? Celebrity dogs? Politicians?
How does this function in one's/your life? Do you blush all over? Do
you send them mash notes?
A friend of mine had a personal visit in a dream, appropriately, from
the Pearl Poet, who announced that his name was Bowtwine Lincoln. His
paper unveiling the identity of the previously anonymous poet ended
my friend's graduate school career. This seems unfair--it was
California in the 60s, and Carlos Castaneda had just received a PhD
in anthro for his Don Juan confabulation. It did have a powerful
effect for the good on my friend's life (not on his substance abuse, tho).
