Here's lookin' at ya kid!" One living, breathing hunk of rock in an otherwise lifeless, endless void.

This says, "To Ken Cheers my friend Ian Gillan". Not bad eh? Got that at the Deep Purple backstage meet and greet in February of 2003. More of the same at this link.

My connection to Jack the Ripper

What connection could I possibly have to Jack the Ripper? It's simple, it was/is me! No, the vigilante committee that was struck to try to find the killer was headed by a man named Lusk. At one time I figured my dad's side (Lusk) came from Ireland and my mom's side came from England. After a little research I'm not so sure. There is a Lusk in England. The mystery continues here...

Roman Coliseum

Quite a building....quite a lot of blood. The coliseum then is like a movie theatre or sports arena now. Quite normal in those days to watch two men chop off each other's limbs - or how about a lion rip an unarmed victim to shreds? Or how about Christians being burned alive - not nice stuff, but neither is that mouldy cottage cheese in your 'fridge. Read more here.

Nero's Golden House

Not much of a military man, but Nero sure knew what he wanted in a building. So massive was this project that few projects then or since match it in context.
Already disliked by the army, not good, and the general poplace, also not good, Nero anyway decided to spend huge resources to build a place where he could live, as he said, like a normal human being.
His Golden House made use of the dome (see picture) for the first time. It was so large he never actually visited every single room. Read more here.

My pics with Bobby Orr

If you know anything about hockey, you should recognize this picture. Even though this series was lopsided, this was the Orr goal that clinched the series and won the Boston Bruins the Stanley Cup. I have a link to these pics elsewhere, but I felt like adding another.
Check pics and story here.

My loose connection to Kirk

No, I have never met William Shatner.....but, I did meet an actor who used to be in his Tek War show. Maurice Dean Wint, who played a cyborg or something like that, came to Sudbury in 2002 for the annual Sudbury filmfest. I had the chance to meet him and the rest of the cast and crew of the film "it all happens incredibly fast".

The small-budget film also stars Trent McMullen, Shawn Lawrence and Duane Murray. We have actually seen all these actors in various productions, but because they are not hugely famous, we don't recognize their names. Oh....I haven't seen this film yet.
