It's a pretty short list:

Sally Ride
Guy Bluford (another astronaut)
Robert Bly
Stevie Ray (wrestler, brother of Booker T)--biggest hands I've EVER seen...would NOT want to get hit by him for any reason
Bob Dole (the real one)
Rev. Basil Pennington, OCSO (late Trappist priest and author)
John Cardinal O'Connor -- extremely nice, humble man
Rev. Benedict Groeschel -- not as nice as you'd think
John McClain -- Houston sports writer and sports radio personality
Jerome Solomon-- Houston sports writer

I've met the mascots for every Houston Sports team:
Toro (Texans) -- nice, nerdy, guy outside of the costume--had great things to say about KC Wolf -- got distracted by the Texans cheerleaders with him---they changed in my office!
Junction Jack -- Astro's mascot
Clutch: Rockets mascot
Diesel: Houston Dynamo mascot
--I was the opening manager for a Houston Public Library branch named after a popular sports writer so we had all the team mascots there for the opening. I wish I could find it, but someone got a picture of all the mascots playing the Wii (before we opened to the public). The funniest part: when someone walked up with a camera, Junction Jack told them not to take a picture until he put his costume hands back on!
