Subject: Nick's path to the Crusades

I'm not sure if this was previously discussed but I was wondering what was the
likeliest route for Nick heading out to the Holy Land for  Crusades?

I'm especially interested in figuring out the ports he would have stopped at
and where he would most probably have been stationed.

Any insight on this would be much appreciated.

For one of my stories I did a little research and decided that Nick
would have traveled from Paris to Aigues-Mortes, taken ship to Italy,
then sailed on to Acre. I figured he would have fought in the vicinity
of Acre.

Anyway, that's the way it worked in my FK universe. Hope that helps a
bit.

According to the Oracle - many FK cast members have a Bacon Index of 2!!

natsuko ohama  has a Bacon number of 1.
Natsuko Ohama was in Flatliners (1990) with Kevin
Bacon

I can't believe I am doing this at 2:30 in the
morning.  I think I need to go to bed.

Every one I tried came up as a 2. Not just  FK members. It was sort of freaky.
I even tried Jet Li and any obscure actor I could think of.

Subject: Re: Nick's path to the Crusades

Over the Christmas period, one of the UK channels did a tv show on the real
St Nicholas, and mentioned that many crusaders considered it good luck to go
and vist the shrine of St Nicholas (of Myra! - the mind boggles) in southern
Italy before going on the Holy Land.  Since that's Nicholas de Brabant's
patron saint, it seems an extremely likely thing for him to have done,
doesn't it?

It is addicting, I had some fun with it or another site several years ago. I
haven't run any FK names through the generator, and haven't run my own, but do
know I have a Bacon factor of 2. I've been on stage with, and am friends
with, James Thweat who was in "My Dog Spot." (He didn't have any lines - played
the heavier little boy as an adult) Does that mean I get some sort of FK shiny
pretty? <wRPg>

Or, as LaCroix would say, "Let the gods follow their rules. I'm much too old
and powerful for rules."

Or, Nick, "I must follow the rules to repay society for my sins!"

Or, Screed, "Rats h'are more funsies than rules!"
