Celebrity Siting

We all have our little "claim to fame" don't we? Well, this week I uncovered a fabulous tidbit of information linking me to the rich and famous...(okay maybe not RICH, but semi-financially stable so to say) Anyway, I know what you're thinking....'I knew it! Dana's related to Jennifer Aniston, they look exactly alike!' (you were thinking that, right? right?) No, no, unfortunately not. But my uncle David (my dad's brother) turned famous on us!

Okay, maybe not famous but he got to pose for an advertisement.


Now, if you know my uncle (which most of you don't) let me give you a little bit of background. He LOVES guitars and is very serious about them...he has so very many (okay I don't know the actual number of guitars he owns because his favorite quote when you ask how many he has is.....'It's impolite to count!') So, we'll leave it at....he has more then ONE guitar. He's also an excellent player and has the band member vinyls to prove it.

So, I don't know much about the Benedetto brand but it must be the worlds best made guitar if my uncle is giving the company the honor of his picture!

My uncle also is a pilot and his job takes him all over the BEST parts of the U.S. and I think some of Canada with his flights so his guitar goes with him on every flight which gave the Benedetto company a great excuse to do a little "Where's Waldo" or "Where's the Travelling ANDY guitar". Sounds like David will have a "re-occurring" role with the Benedetto ads.


As I raise my glass of root beer I say, "Here's to you Captain David...the family guitar geek!"

That's awesome! They never breathed a word about the ad to us. By the way, his "guitar room" is pretty impressive!!
