Yes, you folks may not have known, but my dad is actually a very well known celebrity. He's been good friends with many a star, and I thought I'd share some pictures with you. I'll be adding to this page fairly often, so check back! And yes, he really likes that hat.
Some of you have not been able to view all the pictures, so I have changed all the BMP files to JPG files for your viewing pleasure. If there are any more problems, just holler. I will also eventually thumbnail the photos so they won't take up so much room on the page. I'm too lazy to do it right now.

This is my dad as an infant with his nanny, Ms. Lisa. |
|
Before becoming a a high-profile statastician, he was actually the bassist for the Matthew Good Band (and now that the most recent bassist has quit, he's considering rejoining them in the meantime)... |
|
...and the guitarist for the Smashing Pumpkins. |
|
Dad with the Dalai Lama a few years ago. He went to Mongolia for 6 weeks and stopped by in Tibet for a few days. I don't know who the white folk are, friends I guess. |
|
He also knew John F. Kennedy. Shame what happened to him though, dad thought he was a good man... |
|
He was actually a member of the Beverly Hills 90210 cast. Karen, you might have seen him. (You could probably guess who he replaced too...) |
|
For a few months he was part of Martin Luther King Jr.'s entourage. |
|
My dad was pretty close to Sir Winston Churchill. Doesn't my dad age very gracefully? You'd never know he was almost 110 now. |
|
He's currently riding the wave of the Harry Potter success, as he had a brief scene with Harry himself, and that cute Scottish quiddich captain. |
|
He is also a well-known opera singer, shown here in Giuseppe Verdi's Aida. Unfortunately, he wasn't allowed to wear that Sens hat for the show but he got to wear this one. |
|
This is my dad during his WWF days as "The Emperor". Here he's kicking ass with his finishing move, "Chinese Takeout". |
