I met Austin St. John, the original red Power Ranger when I was a kid. Later in life, I got to meet Paul Wight aka Big Show (formerly of WWE) when I was going to college.

Bobby Orr, in Cardero’s. The cool thing was that everyone knew it was him but they left him alone to eat his dinner. I kind of regret not going up and shaking his hand, but nonetheless it was a thrill just to see him. In my mind the greatest player of all time.

Bobby Hull when I was a youngster playing hockey up north. He actually took the time to travel up to Leaf Rapids, MB in order to present minor hockey players with awards. I was fortunate enough to be chosen, but all I remember is a hand like The Thing from DC comics and TEETH....soo many big white fake teeth it lit up the room lol. Then later in my twenties I was working at a national historic park on a restoration crew. The rest of the crew had moved on to another site and I was left alone to complete restoring a fence. I would just show up by myself, get my supplies (including period costume circa 1850's), put my head down and work. The park staff thought we had moved on and neglected to tell me not to show up for work on one particular day. So there I was, restoring the picket fence around the Governor's House, when all of a sudden 3 military choppers flew over my head to land on the grass field adjacent to the historic site about 100m from where I was working. Armed security with dogs rushed out of the helicopter and began running towards me asking me who I was. Once I explained they chilled and had me stay put, Princess Anne came out of one of the helicopters for her tour of the historic site. She walked right by me, said hello and asked me about my work. I think she wanted to stay and talk a little about restoring historical sites but was ushered towards the big house lol. Both scary and exhilarating!!

Hard to say. "Met" (didn;t talk to but was in proximity to) Elizabeth Hurley (she was damn gorgeous IRL); also Megan Fox (at the airport, back when people gave a damn about her).

I've met a couple of Olympians who were out exercising (outside of their usual sport).

Does Preston Manning count? Talked to him once. I'm not a fan, so it was a brief conversation, but I didn't bust his balls about politics.


Lemmy Kilmister, 1982, outside of Kerrysdale arena (did not really meet, just walked by him and Filthy Animal Taylor, if anybody recognizes that name).
I do, and you're a lucky bastard.

Met Buck Martinez at the Boeing museum in Seattle a few years ago. Went to see the Blue Jays play a weekend series. Real friendly personable guy.

Clifford Olson with a bodyguard ?????

Professional driver with some skills courtesy of Uncle Sam and the South East Asia war games.

Mike Hoare was well met in Rhodesia when I was there in the military. He was always recruiting.
Olson was a customer at Fresgo's before his arrest.
Head was an inmate with a particular fetish I dealt with at the B.C. Pen when I worked there.
Nidal and others of his ilk were clients of my employer, which also led to meeting Waite in Lebanon.
Newman was my cousins neighbour in Bridgeport, we got invited over for a BBQ, Redford was there.
Met Redford again in Vancouver when doing a Unique lives tour, where I also met Julie Andrews.
Knew Tommy Chong from his pa's after hours club, used to be below where Celebrities is now.
Used to hang with Ken Honey which is where I first met Pam Anderson, later again when she was here with Kid Rock.
Met Dorothy at Pal's, a club some of you may recall, was a partner there for awhile.
Janis and Tiny Tim at the Retinal Circus.
The rest and others all clients of my company.

I could have a modest list, but I will just mention one - Turk Broda of the Maple Leafs - who was one of the best goalies ever. In my early teens I had managed to attend a Wings - Leafs game in Detroit. After the game I was part of a small group of people outside the dressing room, hoping to get some autographs. Back then security was non-existent. Eventually Turk Broda came out and we asked him to autograph the program. He was not in the best of humour - he leafed through the program until he found the photo of the Detroit player who has scored a hat trick that night, and scrawled his signature over the face of the Detroit player. We actually met most of the Leafs that night, but Turk Broda made the experience memorable.

Was having lunch in Villefranche-sur-mer in the south of France when Bono , his wife and daughter sat beside us.
Nice guy and totally being himself enjoying lunch with his family.
On another trip was having lunch in Portofino, Italy when Rod Stewart, wife Penny and young son Alastair sat right beside us.
Penny and son were lovely, Rod was miserable for some reason. Nobody bothered him but he was not in a good mood that day.
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck in New York
Meg Ryan in New York.
Tony Blair in London.
Too many to list in Vancouver.

I smoked pot with Susan Sarandon in 2015 in Manhattan. She was so chill and just an all around super cool person. Her weed was okay. Haha
I have wanted to bone Susan Sarandon for over 30 years!! Sharing a reefer with her could have had me go right out of control :)
