How far have you gone to meet Dirk? or How far would you go to meet Dirk?

We have a winner!! Okay, we have two. I asked Doc Holliday to make the final decision but the cat is a flake, like this is news to me.

So the winner of the best story of what you will do goes to Starluck.

Heh. Here's what I would do to meet Dirk Benedict: First of all, I'd have to find a way to get all the way from Europe to the States. Easy! I'll land me the part of a viper pilot on some cheesy SF series(hehe), and travel around the world to speak and conventions and sign autographs for my two(!) fans.
So here I am, at a SciFi convention in Montana, talking to Spock and other pointy-eared semi-aliens, but during the break I sneak out and 'lend' someone's brand new corvette. After speeding down to Big Fork, I ask a local boy about Dirk. 'Wha-? Who? Eggs Benedict? Nah never heard of 'im..' Of course I'm disappointed, but then I look at the kid a bit closer and spot the resemblance. 'Hey!' But he's already gone...
So, I grab the nearest kid and take his bike, following the little imp to his home. 'Wow... so this is the Benedict residence huh?' I hide myself in a tree and wait for Dirk to arrive home, but I really feel a call of nature so I sneak in and use the toilet.. when I hear voices coming close... George and Roland have brought home some friends to play with. 'Frak!' So I stay put, waiting for the kids to leave, praying that they won't want to use the toilet. Unfortunately, they're taking their sweet time. 'Argh!'.
After nearly falling asleep on the toilet, I finally hear Dirk coming home. I nearly faint right there, but manage to stay calm. 'Breathe in.. breathe out..'
But then, the unavoidable happens: someone needs to 'go'.
'Daddy! There's someone in the toilet!'
Because the ground won't swallow me (dang it!) I decide that attack is the best way of defence, and try to open the lock.. it's stuck. 'Help!! Get me outa here!!'
After Dirk calls 911 and the firebrigade arrives, they force the lock open and get me out, my hair a mess and my make up gone. I smile my sweetest smile, hold out my hand, and say: 'Hi, I'm your biggest fan..'

The winner of the best story of what someone has done! (and I know this story is true cause I've got pictures!) goes to Sharon (aka Silverstarbuck).

Well let see.........My story start many years ago...(well not quite that many) Then I was living in the uk....made it a habit to watch Bsg and the A-team every week so I could get my Dirk Fix.
Then it came about that I was able to move to Canada, which I knew was next to the states....Well thats all I knew I didnt realize that Canada was so BIG...Anyway im transgressing from my story. ok back to the UK....I told everybody that when I came to Canada I was going to go to Montana and Meet Dirk, So here I was a fresh faced 22 year old female with one thing on her mind.....Dirk (ok ok I had other stuff too) landing in Vancouver B.C Then an 8 hrs drive to a town called Williams lake which is still in B.C but miles away from Vancouver.........and of course Miles away from Montana (didnt even know which town he lived in at that point) So I put my dream on hold, but Dirk was always in the background (even called my dog Starbuck). So there I was married with two children and we had moved to Alberta Canada near Calgary (real close to montana) The wonderful Tax man gave us some money back that year so we invested in a Computer (if anybody wants to hear my hubbys side of the story, check it out here in stories of family and friends) I went on the net and started meeting Dirk Fans, (some of whom are my best friends) and one of them told me where he lived........(you can see where im going to go now right) ...So I smiled sweetly at hubby and asked if we could go to montana camping.......He said sure, I was in heaven, So off we went to BigFork. I knew the chances of Dirk being around were very slim so I didnt worry about it. Because I knew if had got this far one day I would actually meet the man. And my dream will be coming true in Sept as I am going to vegas with a few of my online friends to see him at the 35 years of fandom convention......I might be up to my eyeballs in debt but I will die happy..................
