I used to think you were bigger than me.
But honestly. I came up with the name on my own. Got here and I'm like wtf? There's 2 other guys thinking the same thing
My avatar's sexier than yours too. How often do you see a redhead with her boobs out?

It's a stupid name. I just wanted to ask one question three years ago, and I panicked at the user name thingie. And I typically don't panic. Unless I'm at the disco.
Me too. I just don't do the discoshit
Ah, my nerdzz, I know how it is.
Wasn't worried much lol. After I was here for a week or so I saw his name and his avatar. Damn, there's a big sumbich. Then I saw his pics with jeremy.
I thought somewhere I read he was a dr. And then nothing else led me to believe that.
Sooo.....here I am...wondering what diet Jon boy used. And what he does for a day job lol.
Nate, it's funny that you are the same age as Aaron and Handsome Mike, as you act old enough to be their father!
I'm slow to anger and fast to joke. I'd rather lead by cajoling than by yelling. I've got lots of experience with way worse people than show up here so my temper is long and my patience unchallenged. F&L is my people and you clowns are a hoot to hang out with. If I ever start to get cranky I expect the lot of you to force-feed me PBR until my attitude improves.

Ya, sometimes I mixed you two Hort Wankers up, but from a distance Jon appears to be better looking than you, which is a big plus in the bush.

As long as none of us take ourselves too seriously, then we should all be ok.
Well maybe you need corrective lenses then. My booze hag avatar is exactly what you need in the bush. She's already into her 3rd bottle. You'd never forget a night with her.

Yes, Kesey was upset with the script of Cuckoo, because they had him rewrite the script from the view of McMurphy and not the Indian Chief (as it was in the book). He later sued the producers (including Michael Douglas) for big bucks, which he won in court. He was also said to not have gotten along with Jack Nicholson at all, and he was snubbed at the Oscars where Cuckoo got 9 nominations.
SAGN also had its production problems. It was an independent film produced by Paul Newman. In early production of SAGN, Paul Newman broke his ankle on the beach while riding a motorcycle. At that time the first director also quit (Newman later said he was fired), so production was stopped. Then Newman became the director. That year it did not rain much in Oregon, like this year, and they did not get the wet effect that they wanted for the film. For unknown reasons, Newman kept the release withheld on DVD. It was a very scarce movie on VHS. We shared a few VHS copies on AS here and I got a borrowed copy, watched it with my ex and then sent it along. .
You have not read the greatest book about Gyppo loggers ever written? Say what?

We always save the best till the last. I didnt really twig to the movie though.I really hated that prick Henry Fonda, reminded me of Gologit. Lol. I really liked Lee Remick though, she always said the right thing.

Trust me, Bob is nothing like Henry Fonda. At least in person. Also the book is 10x better than the movie was. That was the main criticism after it came out. Newman was too timid with the scenes. Save for the last scene (which is right out of the book), and the one where Hank saws the union boss' desk in half. Best scene in that movie I think (and my sentiment toward unions):

Is Paul Newman still around? He looked a bit limp wristed in a few of the scenes, but did a great job when he was trying so save Sarandin. There's more green in finding a first edition of the book than there is in logging.

I put up Mike Lee's photo as my avatar pic as a joke on another site a year or so ago. In dead seriousness, people were sooooo much more polite when they thought that was me, that I've kept it. With Mike's permission of course. I'm a heterosexual male escort as my day (and night) job
Mr Paul Newman is since departed.
personally I felt the movie followed the book better then most, the book has a bunch of existential fluff, though they really should have left the part where Bub gets his self blowed up...
And yeah it did look a bit dry for what the book described... thats cause they filmed it in Warshington near Olympia... don't move here
Also please note that Mr. Newman did in fact climb and top that tree, and didn't look like an actor while doing it.
