Good stuff, Doug! I have a warm place in my heart for Die Hard II. When they came to film most of the final crash scenes in our little town in northern Michigan, I was cast as an extra. I was lucky enough to be an airport cop that was paired with Dennis Franz in the final scene. Being able to log 6 nights on an action movie set was exhilarating. Jump ahead 23 years and when I retired from my job as a psychotherapist, the first thing I wanted to do was get back into the movies. I now have almost a dozen films that I have appeared in, some big ones as an extra and a bunch of low budget ones, where I had major speaking roles. It is a heck of a lot more fun than golf. Thank you for Die Hard II. Search for this old actor at IMdB and see how much fun I am having. Ron Shedd

Thanks Ron. Let's raise a toast to second careers.
