Hello Shannen. My name is Joel. I'm going to ask a question but first lets think back to the year 1997, when I was 17 and you were 26. You were filming a movie in Toronto called Striking Poses. Part of the movie was shot in an apartment building that I lived in. I was apartment #1 and the shoot was taking place right outside my door. A friend of mine was looking out the window at the film shoot when she told me that she thought she saw you walk by. At that moment I was totally blown away, and I took one step outside my apartment door then turned to my right and there you were. I said something funny to you, "Wow you look a lot like Shannen Doherty" and you had the clever reply "I've been told that". I then went to ask the film crew if it was actually you and it was confirmed, and I was almost in shock. To put this in perspective on why it was such a big deal to me; I made a wish when I was 13 and that wish was to one day, eventually when the time is right, to meet Shannen Doherty. You are in fact a wish come true. I thank you for instilling in me the confidence to be my own person and follow my own path regardless of confused criticism. Think of the odds of seeing someone on television, and becoming inspired enough to wish to meet the person, and then it happens several years later. Furthermore, it's not just the fact we met that hits me, it's also the appearing directly outside of my apartment door. In simple terms; I wished for you and then one day I opened my door and there you were. So I hung around the set long enough that I would get a chance to talk with you which I did. We chatted shortly, then we hugged and off you went. I wrote a letter that night and the next day I went to the Striking Poses production studio to drop it off for you. When I arrived I gave the letter to a man who said he'd take care of it. I'm not sure if he was a producer or what his title was but he said he would definitely get it to you. My question is did he keep his word and did you get my letter?
