Rory, You need a horse named Domino to ride the nebraska range on !!! also to outrun the charging deer.

I read a little about Mr. Calhoun many years ago, this made me try and find the exact quote I remember of his -

When Lita Baron sued for divorce, she named 79 women with whom he had allegedly committed adultery. Calhoun responded, "Heck, she didn't even include half of them".

Alan Ladd was the actor he met while horse back riding. The was just a short time after he got out of prison at 21 after a 3 year sentence for auto theft. He had been sent to reform school when he was 13 for stealing a gun, but escaped.

Maybe you should say you're named after Rory Storm - youtube.com/watch

.. and maybe not...

Rory Storm & the Hurricanes, with Ringo Starr?? Cool! Gonna have to ask the wife if she was aware of that, she was a huge Beatles fan.

I was always a bit of a Rory Gallagher fan. Bluesy to rock.

Saw Taste live in Chicago when they toured with Delaney & Bonny and Blind Faith. I still have an old Taste album and one of Rory's solo albums. Ringo left the Hurricanes when asked to join the Beatles, I'm sure they insisted he lose that Teddy Boy hairdo. The song in the video was a cover of an Eddy Cochran song.

Interesting history of your 'Handle' Rory. I have a nickname also that goes back along time ago also given to me by a long time friend.
