Know Your Name-Droppers

Untrue, harmless, "I phoned Schwarzenegger..."
True, harmless boast: "I love my Srinagar.” 
Surreal:  "The shark killed me."
Dubious: “FBI? John, it’s me. ”
True, untrue, dubious— or just a swagger?

Your comments touch my heart, no doubt. But, Mo, you seem to stand off in your photo. Why don't you get closer for a close friend like me to see?!
