I'm the shadowy figure on the left at 1:15 (paramedic) in "Hard To Kill". Steven Segal is a dick.

I was in the newspaper when I was about 4 years old. A cute picture of me holding one of our dogs at a dog show. Been interviewed by the news a few times about public school facilities, and about driver safety in HPDEs.

In Ohio that only gets you honorable mention. My friend whacked a racoon with a stick.

I was the owner and editor of two magazines for 30 years (still own them). I traveled all over North America doing photo shoots and interviews. Wrote over 300 editorials and twice that many articles. Magazine circulation was 60k+ so my name got out there.
I don't know if that made me famous.

No, that's me in the foreground, big head on the right sweeping by the camera.

A Medical Technical Advisor I've worked with for almost 35 years (She's now a producer on Grey's Anatomy) was always putting me in front of the camera as a paramedic, medical student, intern, etc whenever we were doing medical scenes.

I HATE being on screen but don't mind the $200-300 "bump" in pay since I'm on set anyway. That was filmed when SS and Kelly LeBrock were married and she was looking pretty hot (Weird Science era).

I won a lottery once in 1971

I didn't get my birthday picked to go to Nam.

206 was my number, now my standard big bet @ Las Vegas since then.

Lost more than I won.

I wish I could tell you it was something really interesting, but it wasn’t. Well it was to my client. And to me as I had to fork out a lot of money to get the case properly bound and submitted to the court.

Anyways, here it is:

Supreme Court ruled that ADEA claims cannot include a mixed-motives case, the Supreme Court also concluded that the burden of persuasion never switches to employers in a disparate-treatment case under the ADEA.

I made Bob Dylan a sandwich.

I've been in a few plays at our local theater. I would get recognized on the street occasionally during a run of a show. Once at Safeway a lady came up to me and loudly said to me, "Hey! You're the Nazi!" (I was a Nazi officer in Diary of Anne Frank.)

My claim to fame may seem mundane compared to the accomplishments of others, mainly my child hood heros, Buzz Aldrin, Chuck Yeager and of course my dad. However, I pride myself that I am recognized and appreciated by those around me, and that I stuck it out for the long haul, through thick and thin.

My Tombstone will read;

If I was you, I would add "Son" as well.

Your Dad and Mother would, no doubt in my mind..

I helped build an orphanage on an insignificant mountainside in the middle of South Africa for neglected children. At the end of the summer when the Zulu chief came and joyously approved of our building, the missionary we worked with explained that the chief had the power to bless the building, or order it burned to the ground when we left. As the ancients say, "We found favor in his eyes."

That is to setup what I call my claim to fame: During that summer, after an especially hard day of mixing cement and laying brick, I was cleaning off the grime on my shovel in a water filled barrel, splashing water all over the ground and upon my dirty work boots. As I glanced down, I noticed two tiny hands cleaning the dirt and grime off my boots! One of the little orphan children who were living in the area - who had nothing - was there to help me in the only was she could. I was there to server her, but she was showing me how to do it better!

I am honored to have had this beautiful child show me what it means to serve others wholeheartedly. It is one of the greatest expression of love I have ever received, and I look forward to thanking her someday - maybe here, maybe in heaven...
