We had a bit of a late night outing with our favourite speed skater. I got Jeff to be my model with the decor in Mike's apartment.  LOL!

Smallville

Spotted on Episode 17 of Season 8, titled "Hex".  That's me in between Nicole and Kevin on the set of the Daily Planet!  I still remember shooting this.  Erica Durance thanked us personally for staying longer to finish this shot. Me, again coming down the stairs...
Once more, doing a swipe behind Ms. Durance...  I just love working on this show!

Dinner and Song

I met-up with Todd in the evening and we took the Skytrain downtown to meet the others... At Simba's Grill.   Old high school buddies, Angie and Lisl... Todd and Greg... The food had cometh! Awesome!  I ordered their Mishkaki (Beef Skewers). Just awesome! The food was great here.  Well worth a return visit! Angie and Todd admiring the decor at Vancouver's West End location (825 Denman Street). I took shots of the new Safeway after we left the restaurant. It's the new Robson and Denman location! After eating, it was time for some singing. Lisl on the microphone at Fantacity... Angie with Jen, who joined us after... One group shot at the end of our evening... But for Todd and me, the night was not over.  We checked out the Grand Villa Casino after parting with the others.  We didn't spend a dime here!  LOL! Look at all the fucken crows outside!  Needless to say, there was a lot of birdshit. We capped off our evening with a stop at Duffin's Donuts.

Afghan Knights

I finally snatched a clip from this "made for DVD" movie, but it's in French and the audio is a little off.  Jacob and I worked on it as background performers more than 2 years ago!  And, the Russian soldier that puts a gun to my head at the end of the clip is former NHLer, Sasha Lakovic!
