Sadly, not (yet) Steve Biddle...I dream of that day and the joy it will bring, when my IT gear suddenly works faultlessly as it is within His aura.

I owe money to Steve Biddle. And he seems pretty ok about it.

Exchanged ‘Good morning’ with Princess Anne on volcanic Deception Island in the Antarctic about ten years ago. We were on an expedition cruise and had gone ashore in Zodiacs for a look around. She was cruising the Antarctic Peninsula on a red Royal Navy icebreaker and similarly came ashore. Took a couple of surreptitious photos while standing quite near - before being good-naturedly warned off by her protection squad guy.




Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

Nicolas Cage.

I had a co-worker who would run his house in San Francisco.

He was fired for not keeping Nicolas' car's battery charged up.

His reputation for blowing wads of money, on weird things was true.

His house looked like an 1800 opium den, complete with heavy purple curtains, and an expensive piano.

On his second story, he had a large two meter long lizard, some kind of monitor lizard.

He had paintings like this from Sandow Birk scattered around the place.

I think we all aspire to owe money to Steve Biddle, if we're being brutally honest with ourselves.

Mauricio is Steve Biddle and I claim my $5.

It is surely a Bruce Wayne/Batman, Peter Parker/Spiderman deal?

Impossible. People have seen me and Steve Biddle at the same events together.

He is actually not. @sbiddle keeps mentioning it.

Richard Branson outside the Whitehouse in 2010 ...I remember he got one of his staff to take a picture and chatted for about a minute before apologising as he was late for a meeting ...and he had really big hands.

It took him 9 months to confirm how much I owed him before I could pay last time.

Richie, when the Crusaders came in for visits, included many AB's

 

George W Bush, from the iron gates at the White House. 3 black choppers came in, he was in 1, that's the usual method. Walking across the lawn, waving. Guys in black with guns on top of the White House. Got a parking ticket that day just down the road.
