What’s with the eye-patch?

Okay – I recently got a few emails asking me – ‘What’s with the patch?’ You may have noticed – in some of my photos I’m sporting the pirate look – a black eye-patch. Other photos … not so much.Just to dispel any rumours – I’m not a pirate. But I don’t wear the patch as a fashion statement either. Fact is – I lost the sight in my right eye some time back. As a result, at times it can become highly sensitive to light. So, when that happens – eye-patch time.
Yeah – Snake Plissken. Loved this film. Remember the 80’s – truly the high point of the action movie genre.
