I'm also related to a famous Mexican singer/actress...she's my mom's first cousin...
Relatively unknown to North American audiences, but very famous in Mexico and Latin America...although even the kids down there seemed to have forgotten her...kinda like the kids here, none of them know who Rosemary Clooney was (a similar comparison)...
Not really unbelievable or anything, but thought I mention it...I think I might have in the past...apologies if I have, don't wanna sound like a broken record...besides...the last time I saw her...I was like 12 years old, and hated her pretentious kids, lol

Okay, a more serious thing about me.
I produced a music video back in the 80' along with a fellow San Francisco State student who directed it (I was first a film major, then switched to mass communications)...and we both submitted it to the then popular MTV Basement Tapes show...we came in third place in of the episodes. I personally thought the local San Francisco band was lame...but hey...it was a cool experience nevertheless. I did spend a LOT of money...mainly on equipment rental, hiring some local models, feeding the band...and although we didn't pay a dime for the location permit, we spent months trying to get a two night permit at the Legion of Honor museum. We finally got it, and we're super shocked and stocked that we achieved such a thing...unbelievable.Last edited by Hector; May 8, '15, 6:27 PM.Leave a comment:

Worked in a funeral home that catered to the rich and famous.
Was an on-air radio DJ with my own show.
Never married and as time goes by have little to no interest.
Full time single dad since my son was 2 going on 3. He's 9 now.
Can drink an enormous amount of alcohol without getting drunk which is both a blessing and a curse.
Have owned various classic cars since I could drive.
My Mego Museum name is a palindrome, for those that never noticed.Leave a comment:

I didn't learn to swim until I was 48. I come from a long line of "non-swimmers", actually. My Dad went swimming once. My grandmother had knitted him swimtrunks. No wonder he never went swimming again.
I didn't kiss a girl until I was 25. She stuck around.
I still play with toys, and hope nobody ever finds out.Leave a comment:

Well, I don't own a smart phone, or any digital music player, don't text, and seldom use the cell phone my brother made me get for emergencies.
Although I'm an outgoing person, I don't have any friends locally. (but I do in other states).
I don't own a flat screen TV. I have 3 regular box TVs.
Because of my bad back, arthritic knees, and acchilies tendonitis, except for work, the store and the occasional trip to Seattle, I don't really leave this house.Leave a comment:

I'm actually quite shy.
I don't watch a lot of TV and haven't followed a live action TV show since probably the 80s.
I've played video games since I was little when I stood on a milk crate to put quarters in a Space Invaders arcade machine.Leave a comment:

I would consider these interesting facts rather than unbelievable ones.
So taking that into consideration, because I can't think of something about myself that one would think is "unbelievable", I'll just offer an interesting fact (or maybe not so interesting):
I'm related to Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, the author of "Frankenstein", on my paternal grandmother's side of the family. Also, my father named me after Christopher Lee, who has played Frankenstein's monster. So I guess it was inevitable that I ended up being a big horror fan.Leave a comment:
