      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        I think that's the joke TD.

        At first I thought he looked a bit like the singer from The Temper Trap.

            I had a VB with Craig and Charlie Reid backstage at one of their Gigs at The Malthouse about 10 Years ago.

                I knew Rick when he was a kid. His dad owned a paint store in Sunshine and I can remember him wearing his Footscray jumper. Funny how Scott West was an Essendon supporter and ended up as a bulldog legend and Ricky was a Footscray supporter and ended up playing in a premiership for Essendon when they lived behind one another.

                  Rick must have forgotten all about his respect for his childood club with his disgraceful handling of trading Ray away. Still bugs me how that went down.

                      I was on the phone to a lady I know last night, she was meeting her new nurse friends in Perth,( just moved over to work at a hospital for a year ) I ended up talking to them all , one happened to be Dom Sheeds mum.
                      I have met Stevie Wonder, Mark Seymour and Olivia Newton John, I have a nice photo of my cousin getting an OBE off prince Charles last year, she is head of Dance England and runs Birmingham Ballet.
                      I’m also related to Jeremy Irons and one of my relatives played at Chelsea in the 1940s , played 300 games, 1 game for England.

                        He's a bulldog supporter. I used to live in Wellington st in St Kilda an he'd often ran past jogging.

                          I met the creator and main actor of Mr Inbetween in the supermarket in Ky. Cool little show, but no 3rd season according to him.

                            It's by degrees but Matt Groenig the Simpsons creator is a huge fan of FDOTM's comic style.

                              I did meet Ricky Olarenshaw on the night we won the premiership. I was walking down South Bank with my wife & brother when some guy walking towards us with a bulldogs scarf came up to us to give us a hug. He started saying how his whole family were massive bulldogs fans & how this was the best footy moment he's experienced. I knew straight away it was Rick & was taken back by that statement as i knew he played in a flag for the cheats. We chatted for 15 min about the game, what an exciting day that was!

                                Rick's dad had a paint shop and my dad was a house painter. I played heaps of kick to kick with Rick while our dads talked paint prices. I always knew that his passion was the bulldogs but he got paid to play with another club and I used to taunt Essendon supporters with "he may play for you but he loves the Bulldogs"
