Actually I think Tim Conway is even funnier. And the Sheriff in Rides Again.... I'm not sure film is capable of anything more. |

It's good to see a man with freedom on his mind! But while I appreciate your love for paleoconservative political theorist Kirk Russell, I think Kurt Russell is the one you had in mind.  |

I think I'm going to check in to a Best Western, order a Tombstone pizza, or maybe go out for a spaghetti dinner, some place cheap, where I can pay with a fist full of dollars, and drown my sorrows because I'm unforgiven for liking Lonesome Dove.  | | The Following User Says Thank You to VirginiaHuguenot For This Useful Post: | |
