Knowing Liam Neeson was in the area filming the movie Hard Powder (released as Cold Pursuit), the Big Star Sandwich company, a Canadian sandwich shop got a surprise visit from the actor. The shop’s manager, a superfan named Matt, put out a chalkboard sign that read: “Liam Neeson eats here for free.”
About seven hours after the sign went up, Neeson actually walked through the door and asked in his famous, intimidating voice, “Where’s my free sandwich?”
I can only imagine how cool that must have been for the manager and the customers who were at the shop!
(For clarification: this is a real event that happened in 2017. This is the first I’ve ever heard of the event)
I’ve never met Neeson, but he certainly has a reputation of being a nice guy who is good to fans. He also has no issue having fun, as one can see in his famous Easter Bunny comedy sketch from Stephen Colbert’s show…
I'm just a guy who likes the classics. I love Old Time Radio Shows. I love Classic TV. I love Classic Movies. I love songs from the "Great American Songbook". I dig songs from the first decade of Rock and Roll. Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to newer things. My musical taste ranges from Classical to Classic Rock and Country to Rap. I love a good book and am always looking for something to read. I tend to lean toward historical fiction, biographies, mysteries, and more.
I have always believed that our past (and the things we've experienced in it) make us who we are today. That being said, after reading through some old My Space blogs (yeah, that's about how long it's been since I blogged regularly), I decided that I should once again write. Welcome to my blog. I hope you find it interesting, thought provoking, and entertaining in some way.

Considering your own use of ai pix, how sure are you the above isn’t ai generated?
Good question. I actually checked. I didn’t mention it here, by the story actually happened in 2017. It was a BBC news story. It came up on one of the Facebook groups I follow. I thought it was a recent thing.
