When I was 9 my mom and I took the Amtrak (probably the closest you can get to a "land cruise") from St Paul, MN to New York and Washington D.C. and Michael Gross stopped and talked to us while we were sitting in our compartment with the door open. It was very cool, though my mom didn't realize who it was until I told her after he'd left. If you don't know who Michael Gross is, he played the father, Steven Keaton, on "Family Ties" and was also the "survivalist" guy, Burt Gummer, in the Tremors movies.

We were on the Nordic Empress in 97 with our kids who were then 6 and 7 and there was a guy working as a counselor in the kids camp who had been on "Saved by the Bell". I have no idea what his name is, but I think his characters name was Screech, or something like that. I just know he wasn't the guy who ended up on NYPD Blue. My kids knew instantly who he was.

That would be Dustin Diamond. Sad that I didn't even have to look it up. :rolleyes:
