He’s still the best skeet shooting surfer out there.
I dunno. He’s tied pretty closely with the Clintoons. But then again, nothing would surprise me anymore.
Ted Turner owns much of the land in NM and raises Bison (among other animals). He sells Bison hunts thru an outfitter. One of his most frequesnt hunters is none other than Jane Fonda.
Go figure
Val Kilmer has some.... well, let’s just say he’s displayed some “emotional” issues at times. Plus, he’s a lush.
In other words, he’s a typical Democrat.
Sounds like the Costner film is believable, then — I’ll rent it tomorrow for viewing after my shift.
I did some reading on Wyatt Earp once, and the real story is widely divergent to the “Tombstone” version. Like, for example, the apparently complete absence of a criminal gang known as “The Cowboys”...
Do you know of any decent movies about the Texas Rangers? I haven’t seen one — but I have read plenty of good books about ‘em. Wonder why that is?
(I see you’ve met both Applegate and Kalishnikov. I’m a long-time fan of Applegate’s “Kill or Be Killed” — it’s a fantastic manual for anyone wanting good, pragmatic self-defense. Also helpful for anyone wanting to learn how to shoot the 1911 .45 correctly. He was WAY ahead of his time in many respects. So was W E Fairbairn. And Kalishnikov...)
If he could get the endorsement of a single director he's worked with, I'd probably vote for him.
Batman??????? Bill...stop and gather your thoughts for just a moment. Batman is a FICTIONAL character. Not REAL. You DO know that don’t you???
So, OK..Val was Batman and he was Ice ... both fictional characters. OK? He PLAYED THE PART of both those characters. Repeat after me Bill:
Batman was a fictional character
Ice was a fictional character
Val Kilmer is an ACTOR who PLAYED those fictional characters
Bill Richardson lives in a fantasy world of movies I guess.
Oh that knocked me off my chair laughing. What a way to begin a day. Thanks!
I think you’re mistaking Applegate with Col. Jeff Cooper. Cooper taught the modern technique based on Jack Weaver’s research.
The history of the Texas Rangers span a long time and it’s made up of short heroic incidents that wouldn’t translate to a movie.
I believe that Val Kilmer’s father was a “developer” in Los Angeles with a poor reputation. Overpriced and not so well built homes.
I might be wrong, but I don’t think I am remembering incorrectly.
I used to ride horses near and across a “development” that was dormant for a number of years that was Kilmer’s father’s project.
Would like to know more about Val Kilmer himself. Sometimes apples don’t fall far from the tree.
Well, That is ironic, isnt it?
Man did Kilmer completely PW3NED that role. That was the greatest acting I have ever seen.
He was also Nick Rivers in Top Secret. Richardson is such a brain donor, but I see what he's getting at. To Richardson it's important WHO you pretended to be for money. Just like him pretending to be Governor.
You’re biting sharp today CGA7 ... This anchor baby can go and dry up in the Chihuahuan Desert for all I care ... just go away already!
