My brother was so excited when he met the famous celebrity Jeff Bridges and received his autograph.  He said that he was able to walk past the sheriff unnoticed on the set of the movie “Seabiscuit.”  When my brother introduced himself to Jeff, he said that Jeff laughed when my brother did an impersonation of him.  Jeff was so impressed with my brother that he invited him over to have a beef steak dinner. Supposedly, Jeff's wife was incredibly beautiful, and there was so much stuff in Jeff's house that a thief would have trouble stealing it all. 

My brother always tries to act like a tough guy, but when it comes to Jeff Bridges, he is obsessed.  Instead of his girlfriend, he kept a waterproof photograph of Jeff Bridges in his wallet to inspire him from day to day life, ever since he saw the 1998 movie “The Big Lebowski.”   The movie made my brother laugh so hard that he was forced to cough out his pizza.  I remember the incident well because he coughed the chewed up pizza on the loaf of bread I just bought from the bakery.

Ever since he had dinner with Jeff Bridges, my brother has had no problem showing off and telling people of his experience.  If someone thought he was bluffing, he would always show the autograph picture in his wallet and the photograph he took at Jeff's house.  It will be a relief to find someone who is not impressed with my brother's encounter with Jeff Bridges.  I've heard enough of the same story.
