Just a heads up here... but it is considered REALLY BAD form to publicly tell people specifics about your notarizations, specifically names or information that could lead to names.
This is especially true in California where any member of the public is allowed to request a copy of your journal entry... and for which you must comply. All they need to do is provide you the name, month and type of document. Then they have access to to a lot of personal information. In California, we notarize for high profile people all the time. It's a big no-no to brag about it.
I can see a TMZ staffer bombarding you with written requests, now... and if they guessed the right type of document (let's say any of the big ones, like POA, DOT, etc.) you would have to give it to them.

Violation of privacy to reveal names. This has come up
before. Tempting as it is to want to shout about it, there are several notaries here who work with high profile signers. You can call NR & ask them to delete the post to be on the safe side. :-)

Even those of us in "flyover country"
get our fair share of notables i.e. "lions of industry", rock stars, concert musicians, and many major league (NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB) to just mention a few. I stopped being in awe of them a long time ago. The do their job as best as they can and I do mine as best as I'm able. The only difference is the zeros at the end of the paycheck. Once you realize this, it's duck soup and just like any other signing.

Dorothy, I have never been in awe of them You know they put their pants on the same way as everyone else.
(The ones who feel you should be in awe of them are the "nouveau riche")
