Slabs :

You need to adjust your sense of humor at supper time.




My last line was humor.  It would have been recognized back when I was humerous.

Without saying too much about the ending, they could have had the two aging gunfighters near the end of the movie played by original cast members, Robert Duval and Glen Campbell but they didn't. Too bad!

Glen Campbell has Alzheimers.  :(

There is no need to say 'unleaded regular gas'. It's all unleaded. Just say 'regular gas'. It's not the 70s anymore. (At least that's what my wife tells me.)

We watched the new True Grit movie last night.

I guess I'll stick with the advice that if I can't say anything nice, then say nothing at all....... :-X

FYI,  Netflix has both "True Grit" movies available streaming.

FYI.2,  I still like the true, "True Grit" better even though it had a number of technical flaws.

If I ever see another movie, where there are no contractions in the dialog, I'm going to look up the writer/director and beat them with a nice stout piece of hickory. My god,  but that was annoying.

I’ve seen two newer versions of Stagecoach.  Neater one was worth a spit. At least the 1966 version had Ann Margret and Slim Pickins.  The 1986 version with Johnny Cash and company was really bad.

We found a couple of great old John Wayne westerns before Christmas I told Mary to wrap up for me.   One was Red River, and the other The Cowboys.
