I am laying bed with fresh case of the sniffles (or eboli not sure which). To pass the time I'm rereading Jay Masseys book 'A thousand campfires'. He has a very profound quot from the movie Deliverance.. "A man has to control himself before he can control his bow".
How true. One of the things I like about trad gear.
Joe :D

What should have been said in the movie was "Get away from that log Ned!!"

Get better Joe! Jay hit it on the nail head. So true!

At least the Eboli gave you an excuse to sit down and read.

Ned Beatty gets all the hard parts...

Sorry, couldn't help myself...

joe, hope you are feeling better by now. Developing sniffles and such ailments is usually a sign that you need to drink a better grade of whisky.

Zbone, was that necessary?

But still a good one. :D

Seriously, I heard that role almost ruined his career.

SCATTERSHOT - Talkn bout Beatty's career, without googling, what role did the hillbilly play in another classic movie... He recently die like a year or two ago...

(hint, Eastwood flick)

Blackhawk · « **Reply #16 on:** December 27, 2015, 11:21:00 AM »

That hillbilly was in one of Clint's comedy movies that stared that Orangutan (Clyde??)...but forgot the title right now.

BTW, I read that Beatty insisted on just one take for that scene.

The Outlaw Jose Wales....Capt Redlegs

Feel better Sir.

Personally, I've always thought Burt should have spent more time sharpening that razorhead. Would most likely have gotten a pass through.
Hope you're feeling better by now.
