I love the Hag, but I have a feeling he cooked up that story later, after he knew how many hippies out in San Francisco bought his records. My dad made Ronald Reagan look like Bernie Sanders, and he loved that song. Haggard wrote some great songs, and he'll be remembered forever. It's all in the Movies and If we're…

Somebody beat me to it. God how I love this song. It's all mood, and so wistful, while trying to keep upbeat for the kids, and failing badly. This and Tulare Dust are my favorites.

Big City is in Fargo, at the bar where the kidnappers cook up their plot. "and your so-called, social security".

I love him trying to talk the pit boss into giving him back his money, something like "You'd be the first person in history to do this! Think how famous you'd be!"

I'M IN THE SHADOW OF THE FRIEND ZONE!

Point well taken. In the past it was some power-hungry megalomaniac, or somebody who might be sympathetic but who couldn't control themselves (a 50-foot-tall guy or something), who were doing these things. Then again, King Kong didn't go back to the cars he smashed to check on the occupants. That's just one of my red…

I watched The River's Edge on VCR while shrooming many years ago, and after watching a rat scurry from the palm tree next to the house we were at to the roof of the house, we came to the following conclusion: Rats are Dennis Hopper squirrels.

Movies have always been about destruction and redemption - now movies have higher budgets and "better" CGI "realism" to show more things being blowed up real good. You'd have stock footage of nuclear bombs to show the same thing in sci-fi movies in the '50s. In 20 years, CGI will be good enough to destroy the entire…

Really not, although your ribs will be sore by Bay poking you to make that statement repeatedly throughout the movie.

I think his best performance is at the start of The Other Guys. That was inspired. "Aim for the bushes!"

The debate has gone on for ages.

Made from Pyramid Grain!

And he likes people to respect his authoritah.

"my kids were just playing hangman on the lawn using gasoline! stop listening to the lamestream media's lies!"

I don't know karate, but I know ka-razor!

What I learned here, and it's not something I needed to learn, is that the dream continues to be deferred.

Well that went in several TOTALLY AWESOME directions!

Hey, that is exactly what I did - took half your advice, and half Flag on the Moon, like you're a robot talking to a preschooler. They have outsourced their retention call centers now, I'm pretty sure I was talking to a very nice woman from the Philippines. I was polite but firm, repeated my desire to cancel, and the…

Thanks! While I expect Ricky Roma vs. James Lingk, a cancellation will be happening. Does saying you got laid off help? Because that really did happen last year. I'm looking for pathetic excuses here!

Actually offering me the Dave Grohl and Bill Maher network for free might make me angry enough to finish this off pretty quickly.
