Loved Bartoli, too. Loved him. Until Ray killed him.

[BBell]

He was at his best!

And don’t forget Manny Weisboard, and Andrew Dice Clay as Max Goldman. Michael Madsen made a few appearances, too, sinister as always.

I like that one in addition to Layer Cake and The Long Good Friday.

I feel sorry for the guy. I did the exact same thing myself about 10 days before 9/11. All the airport security folks (pre TSA) were staring at the Xray of my computer bag & pointing. I kept asking what the delay was. I had no clue.

Then it hit me, I’d forgotten my unloaded .45 autoloader was still in the bag from a month earlier.

I was of course immediately arrested but they were much more tolerant back then & I was given a relatively small fine.

This sort of thing actually happens quite a bit.

No doubt your response would be the same if rather than Farina, it was a Qur’an toting muslim named Mahmoud

In my world, the Qur'an-toting muslim named Mahmoud would be allowed to carry his gun on board a plane. Why? Because everybody else would be allowed to carry THEIR guns on board. Thus, the Qur'an-toting muslim named Mahmoud would not know whether he could hijack the plane successfully, because any number of people could open fire on the Qur'an-toting muslim named Mahmoud, should he try something stupid. On the other hand, should some yobs try to pick a fight with the Qur'an-toting muslim named Mahmoud, the Qur'an-toting muslim named Mahmoud could handily defend himself. :-)

Of course, this is the real world, so the Qur'an-toting muslim named Mahmoud would have some splainin' to do while in detention. :-)

A couple of lines from Snatch.

Customs official: Anything to declare?
Avi: Yeah. Don’t go to England.

Dennis played Avi.

Here’s a question for you: What do CSI’s Gary Sinese and CSI’s David Caruso have in common?

Madam, but that’s okay.

Glad I’m not the only one here who remembers the 80’s :-)

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

They’ll still know you own a gun (and maybe even what type, depending on the level of detail they asked for in the application). And that, IMO, is bad enough.

[Still Thinking]

You know, X, I could have gone all day without that picture in my head. I have to go poke out my mental eyes now.

[Osage Orange]

You have obviously not hunted many whitetails.

Did I say I hunted Whitetails with a .22?

Nope, I did not.

I use a .270...and have always used a .270...or an arrow.

Since the .22 short rimfire was introduced in right around 1857...Many/most folks "familiar" with hunting will tell you that more .22 caliber rounds have taken whitetail deer than other type rounds.

And that was my point.....

Thanks-

saw him in a miami vice episode, “lombard”, from the second season I believe, playing a mobster who would not rat.

Awaiting answer. :)

[Still Thinking]

He was pretty funny in a comedy where he was a hit man. Can’t remember the name, but it was pretty funny.

[Tax-chick]

You’re right, “Crime Story.” It’s been years. It was the ultimate cop show, at least at that time.

They're both overpaid?

[ProfessorGage]

Ray Luca killed them both in Crime Story. Red got blasted in the 2 hour movie premier and Gary got it sometime later.

[EveningStar]

Wow. What a memory you have.
