CSI Files
Captain
<I>CSI: New York</I> star <font color=yellow>AJ Buckley</font> (Adam Ross) recently spent time at the western-themed Calgary Stampede in Canada.<P>As CSI Files previously <A class="link" HREF="http://www.csifiles.com/news/090709_01.shtml">reported</a>, Buckley attended the Calgary Stampede with his friends <font color=yellow>Heath Freeman</font> and <font color=yellow>Johnny Hawkes</font>. "My publicist had called me to invite me up and I've never been up here before," Buckley told the <A class="link" HREF="http://www.calgaryherald.com/index.html">Calgary Herald</a>. "They said to bring a couple of friends. So I said 'Heath, Johnny, do you want to go see some bull riding and some beautiful Calgary women?' They said 'yep . . . done.'"<p>"I just got back from Iraq where I was visiting the troops," the actor continued. "To see that world and to come back home and be around this very Canadian-American tradition, it was really refreshing to be at home. The people in Calgary, and Canada in general, are so friendly and so nice. Everybody is in a good mood."<p>Getting the chance to travel is one reason Buckley is glad to work on <I>New York</I>. "<I>CSI</I> is such a great steady gig to have," he explained. "It's such a giant franchise, I get to travel all over the world. But artistically you are always looking for something that's going to push and challenge you as an actor --not that <I>CSI</I> doesn't. I like the dark dramatic stuff that I've been fortunate enough to play; things I've been able to sink my teeth into."<p>The original article is from the <A class="link" HREF="http://www.calgaryherald.com/entertainment/Television+celebrities+bullish+stampede/1774069/story.html">Calgary Herald</a>.<center></center>
