THE ‘JUGGLER’ ROLE (OTE: $75,000 – $90,000)

Posted on by Head Hunter Krpan in Random Thoughts

JUGGLER.png

Anthony Gatto was born in Manhattan, New York in April 1973.

At age 8 … he made his first appearance … on ABC’s “That’s Incredible” television show.
By the age of 10 … Mr. Gatto was performing in Las Vegas.
And … he would go on to star in 2 Cirque Du Soleil shows – Koozå (2007-2009) and La Nouba (2010-2012).

He holds 11 world records for juggling.
Gatto has juggled eleven rings … as many as nine balls … and as many eight clubs.

To put it in perspective … there is only one man who has juggled 8 clubs for a total of 16 catches … and that man was … Anthony Gatto!

THE EXECUTIONER ROLE (OTE: $93,500 – $115,500)

Posted on by Head Hunter Krpan in Random Thoughts

Executioner.png

In the late 1700’s, in Roscommon, Ireland … a woman named Betty and her son lived in miserable poverty.  While it was uncommon for someone raised in such conditions to be literate … Betty was!

She taught her only son to read and write and would constantly remind him that only money could bring him happiness in life. And, when he was old enough … she encouraged him to leave Roscommon and find his fortune – in America!

Years later, one dark evening … a tall, well-dressed gentleman knocked on Betty’s door looking for a place to stay. Betty let him in, and later that night, as he slept … Betty crept into his room, and murdered him for his money!

As Betty rifled through the man’s things … to her horror … she discovered the ‘stranger’ was, in fact … her son!

Overcome by the shock of her actions, Betty ran screaming into the streets … confessing her guilt. She was arrested, stood trial … and was condemned to death – by hanging!

On Execution Day … as Betty and a few other criminals were being led into the yard … they were informed the executioner had “called in sick” … and the sheriff was refusing to personally perform the executions.

Seizing her opportunity … Betty asked that her life be spared … in return for hanging the other prisoners – herself!

The sheriff agreed … and Betty got to work! “Lady Betty” was so efficient and capable … she was appointed as Roscommon’s Hang Woman … a job with a yearly salary … and room and board!

What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?
Well … not much, really.

THE ‘ROUGH ON RATS’ ROLE ($75,000 – $80,000)

Posted on by Head Hunter Krpan in Random Thoughts

RoughOnRats.png

In 1895, Tillie Gburek married John Mitkiewicz. In 1914, John passed away from what was believed to be “a heart condition”. Tillie’s second husband, Joseph Ruskowski also died … as did her next boyfriend.

Tillie’s third husband was Frank Kupczyk. Tillie would greet Frank in the morning, saying “it won’t be long now” … “you’ll be dying soon”. As Frank’s health deteriorated … Tillie began knitting herself a mourning hat … and even purchased a bargain coffin – storing it in their basement!

Upon Kupczyk’s death, Tillie remarried, yet again. And, as you’ve probably guessed, this husband (Frank Klimek) also fell ill. But this time … doctors suspected arsenic poisoning, and lab tests confirmed it!

As she was being arrested … Tillie turned to the police officer and said …”the next one I want to cook a dinner for, is you”.

The bodies of Tillie’s victims were exhumed … and were found to contain lethal doses of arsenic. Her “weapon of choice” had been a rat poison called – Rough On Rats!

Following her arrest, it was found that; a total of 20 people had fallen ill after dining at Tillie’s home (14 of whom died) and Tillie, newly nicknamed, “the Poison Widow” … had life insurance policies on all of her husbands!

PS: On the bright side … you may be glad to know, after 3 months in the hospital … Joseph Klimek survived!

THE ‘WALTER COLLINS‘ ROLE (OTE: $110,000 – $132,000)

Posted on by Head Hunter Krpan in Random Thoughts

WALTERCOLLINS.png

On March 10, 1928 … Christine Collins’ nine-year-old son Walter left his house in Los Angeles … heading to the local movie theatre … and vanished, in thin air!

As news of Walter’s disappearance spread across America … the LAPD’s competence was called into question. While the department had received hundreds of leads … there were no developments in the case.

5 months after Walter’s disappearance … the LAPD announced they had wonderful news … Walter had been located in DeKalb, Illinois … and was coming home!

As Walter’s mother watched the boy step down from the train … she turned to Captain JJ Jones and explained this child was not her son! In a blind effort to “save face” for the LAPD … the Captain insisted Christine take the boy home and “try him out for a couple of weeks”?!?!?

When Christine returned a few weeks later (dental records in hand) … proving the boy was in fact, not Walter … Captain Jones had her committed to a psychiatric ward!

Long story short … the imposter eventually admitted to being a runaway, looking for a free ticket to Los Angeles (to meet his favourite actor) … and Christine was released.

Sadly … while there are various theories about the case … Walter’s body was never found and Christine never stopped hoping he’d eventually turn up.
