The Facts of Life; And Other Dirty Jokes
Is a quick, fun read. Willie doesn't get too into giving you an autobiography, it's more like sitting down and having a conversation with a really cool old fart.

Yeah, I just saw that movie because I use to like baseball and I'd just seen "Bull Durham" so I was like "hmm..Kevin Costner baseball movie" and it turned out to be a sappy romantic couple of hours I'll never get back.

We've talked about a lot of best, but what about worst?

RE: Marry Me

I'll vote Bull Durham as best baseball movie, especially if you go smoke a cigarette during Crash's dopey ass speech (that has been further referenced above).

Thank you
For your inclusion of "On the Hunt." Though not a "summer song" per-se I'd say the Stones' "Stray Cat Blues" could be a substitute if you're too yankee for Skynyrd. I'd find it's inclusion a suitable double shot of sleaze.

Lee Marvin and Clint Eastwood were singing. Lee Marvin doesn't dance, he kills whatever gets in his way. And, he sings.

White gravy is actually better if you use water instead of milk (and a whole lot of pepper and sage sausage). But then it isn't really white anymore.

See I can apreciate the irony in, say, Okie From Muskogee and I have a lot of fun singing the "we don't let our hair grow long and shaggy" part since, well, I do. But Toby just seems a little too serious or pleased with himself, where Merle was either joking or trying to get a rise out of people. Toby is always,…

If you're referring to that "the meaning of life and other dirty jokes" book then I'll second, hartley. It reads quick and it's a lot of fun.

I picked up the Willie Sings Kris at some used vinyl place and I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was, especially since I'd already heard most of the original Kris songs.
Seven Spanish Angels is another great tearjerker country song.
And, just to throw it out there, favorite track on "Shotgun Willie" and a…

Toby isn't as dumb as some of them. His song with Willie is a lot of fun. Matter of fact, anytime Toby's singing about boozing he's alright.

The Troublemaker
That song is great. A little corny? Maybe. But, damn it, it's executed so well you're supposed to tear up. I love the way he just kind of throws away that last line and then does some "contemplative gospel hum" (for lack of a better term) at the end.

Well, that last one is just proof that Vince Russo is a hack who doesn't care about the business.

Billy Joe Shaver is an outlaw country god and Honky Tonk Heroes is one of my favorite albums. And, Otis, Billy Joe sings the theme song to Squidbillies and Unknown Hinson voices the lead, uh, squid.

When Warrior (the guy's, no shit, legal name) gets his movie it will teach us all what happens when you read Ayn Rand bookjackets, take a whole bunch of steroids, and decide America needs to beat up all the homosexuals. There will also, probably, be space travel. And Santa in bondage.

yeah, the management, thank you for confirming Piper did have some sort of bad disease because I'm too lazy to google it. And I mean no disrespect to the Nature Boy, Rowdy Roddy or, personal favorite, The American Dream but even they can't deny they've aged.

Piper was one of my favorites growing up. But recently he teamed up with Flair and Dusty Rhodes for some gimmick or another and all three looked like, well, they looked like they've been wrestling for twenty-five/thirty years and aged hard along the way. Didn't Piper have cancer or some kind of really serious illness…

Yeah, they throw a lot of good covers in to their live shows. Recently Patterson had been doing "State Trooper" and if you search through the bootlegs you can find Jason doing a killer version of "Let Me Roll It."

Yeah, big second on "Live At The Old Quarter." And I didn't know there was anybody on earth that DIDN'T listen to at least a little Willie Nelson.
