Ok I loved it. Not sure that's a good thing.

John Cleese in Faulty Towers where he becomes enraged at his car and beats it with a sapling. I mean that is one for the ages.

I can remember Nick at Nite having a marathon when they stopped showing Mr. Ed. It was called Au Revoir Mr Ed and featured such surreal highlights in the commecials like Mr. Ed surfing. Surreal stuff.

I don't remember a slave song. Maybe the version I taped off Disney Jr has been edited.

I have a young child and watch Dumbo and I never thought they crows were bad. They were clever and not cruel. Maybe I am insensitive

Country has black too. Well at least influences.

What about FF inc? The Future Foundation? The lack of love and respect the FF is getting lately is really depressing this middle aged fan boy.

In all seriousness when I saw this in the theater with my now wife, you could hear people gasp for her topless scene. I mean she literally took people's breath away. What an amazing physical specimen. Nothing but compliments.

Let me throw something out for people to chew on. I think that it is not at all implausible that a man of the south who stood for rule of law and anti lynching in the 1930s would be a segregationist in the 50s. The Drive By Truckers call this "The Duality of the Southern Thing." I understand that this would diminish…

Am I the only one who thinks its epic when Peter O'Toole rides to the rescue at the end of Club Paradise in his imperial dress uniform?

Im not really taking up for Rudy (though I admire him) but my original intent was to point out that crime was out of control, and the right responded to it. It wasn't a figment of Ronald Reagan's imagination.

And yet the murder rate remains low….
"I often say that when you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meagre and unsatisfactory kind; it may be the beginning of knowledge, but you have scarcely,…

I was trying to be civil….I don't consider myself too rightwing.

How much do you value life? Its an interesting argument. I would imagine that anyone who didn't get killed during the demonstrably more peaceful Giuliani era would think it s a small tradeoff if some petty criminal had to spend extra time in court. As for police brutality-despite it being such a hot topic I find most…

No large drop in the murder rate appears to occur until well after Dinkins left.

Appaloosa (hope I spelled right) is very very underrated movie. One of the best of the last decade. May be the best western of the new century in a less than crowded field.

The economics of the working actor fascinates me. We all kinda cringe when we see such a great guy in a shitty role, but then we don't pay his bills do we?

Is there anyplace where you can play the game? Pointless exercises I like.

Well considering that Canada was part of NATO its hard to imagine a scenario where Canada is invaded and it doesn't trigger WW3.
