Unusual facts about me:

• I have been in the vicinity of terrorist bombings or foiled bomb plots in London three times in my life (and I am NOT anxious to try for a fourth time!).
• My favourite film directors are Alfred Hitchcock & Mel Brooks.
• I am a big fan of Opus, the penguin from the recently resurrected comic strip "Bloom County."
• I was accepted into graduate school at Columbia University, but the University of Western Ontario gave me a full tuition scholarship AND a teaching assistantship for income, so I went to Canada.
• I once fell asleep (from jet lag) on the shoulder of a countess in the Royal Box at the Prince Edward Theatre in London while watching the musical Chess.
