Hi! I'm Roger - that is: Viking RogerIt's a great site I have created, and Ted
converted my great ideas into this technically HTML-stuff - whatever.
I'm a celebrity. I did 6 miles of the Dublin Marathon in October 2000 - which in comparison with a human being would have been
65 miles! I was honored for this run - what else could you expect for an incredible achievement
like this - and from this I wrote "Following My Star". It was a success, and Steven Spielberg asked if he
could make it into a movie. I was nominated for an Oscar, but Julia Roberts - even though she was in my movie - supported
Denzel Washington, which meant that he got the Oscar instead of me! I have written another book, "Before I was a Viking".
It's about my life as a polar bear on the seven seas.
Before I was an athlete I was an alcoholic, but with my strong personality I recovered. Once I wanted to become a
buddhist monk, but as a celebrity I haven't really got the time...
Name: Roger O'Tall (that's my birthname)
Origin: I was created in China and Frances bought me on a tall ship in Dublin in August 1998.
Baptised: I'm not really baptised, but the day is said to be 20th August 2000
Best friend: Teddy McBear
Likes: Dinner at D'Angleterre or Waldorf, whichever - oh, and don't forget I'm a bear of 3 continents, I like travelling!
Dislikes: Wimps and narrowminded people - and cats constantly looking for attention - oh, and silly dogs!
Skills:
I'm me! What'dya expect?
I enjoy writing books, working with movies, talking to moviestars (well, not Julia Roberts)
Travelling Experiences:
I'm a bear of 3 continents, and I have been to so many places it's too much trouble starting on a long list!
- But if you take the list on McBear's page - and add these shots,
you've got a list of my travels - more or less...
Here I am having coffee at the Royal Dublin Hotel.
Or was it The Gresham? It's hard to distinguish,
when you visit so many hotels...
