LOL

I figured most people would be lost trying to keep up with this thread.

Poor Ma. She probably won’t get to bed for two days while she tries to answer every single post!

Speaking of Mickey Rourke...he's more than great as Marv in Sin City. A tour de force!


Marv: [at his own execution] Would you hurry it up? I haven't got all night.

From Pulp Fiction

MOTHER; Butch, stop watching TV a second.
We got a special visitor.
Now do you remember when I told you your daddy dies in a P.O.W. camp?

BUTCH; (OS) Uh-huh.
MOTHER; Well this here is Capt. Koons.
He was in the P.O.W. camp with Daddy.

CAPT. KOONS steps inside the room toward the little boy and bends down on one knee to bring him even with the boy's eyeline. When Koons speaks, he speaks with a slight Texas accent.

CAPT. KOONS; Hello, little man. Boy I sure heard a bunch about you. See, I was a good friend of your Daddy's. We were in that Hanoi pit of hell over five years together. Hopefully, you'll never have to experience this yourself, but when two men are in a situation like me and your Daddy were, for as long as we were, you take on certain responsibilities of the other. If it had been me who had not made it, Major Coolidge would be talkin' right now to my son Jim. But the way it worked out is I'm talkin' to you, Butch. I got somethin' for ya.

The Captain pulls a gold wrist watch out of his pocket.

CAPT. KOONS This watch I got here was first purchased by your great-granddaddy. It was bought during the First World War in a little general store in Knoxville, Tennessee. It was bought by private Doughboy Ernie Coolidge the day he set sail for Paris. It was your great- granddaddy's war watch, made by the first company to ever make wrist watches.

You see, up until then, people just carried pocket watches. Your great-granddaddy wore that watch every day he was in the war. Then when he had done his duty, he went home to your great- grandmother, took the watch off his wrist and put it in an ol' coffee can. And in that can it stayed 'til your grandfather Dane Coolidge was called upon by his country to go overseas and fight the Germans once again. This time they called it World War Two.

Your great-granddaddy gave it to your granddad for good luck. Unfortunately, Dane's luck wasn't as good as his old man's. Your granddad was a Marine and he was killed with all the other Marines at the battle of Wake Island. Your granddad was facing death and he knew it. None of those boys had any illusions about ever leavin' that island alive. So three days before the Japanese took the island, your 22-year old grandfather asked a gunner on an Air Force transport named Winocki, a man he had never met before in his life, to deliver to his infant son, who he had never seen in the flesh, his gold watch. Three days later, your grandfather was dead. But Winocki kept his word. After the war was over, he paid a visit to your grandmother, delivering to your infant father, his Dad's gold watch.

This watch.

This watch was on your Daddy's wrist when he was shot down over Hanoi. He was captured and put in a Vietnamese prison camp. Now he knew if the gooks ever saw the watch it's be confiscated. The way your Daddy looked at it, that watch was your birthright.

And he'd be damned if and slopeheads were gonna put their greasy yella hands on his boy's birthright. So he hid it in the one place he knew he could hide somethin'. His a$$. Five long years, he wore this watch up his a$$.

Then when he died of disentary, he gave me the watch. I hid with uncomfortable hunk of metal up my a$$ for two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the watch to you.

Hey, gang. When you get a chance check out this song. I found it at the GoE website.....

Along with this message:

The first musical performace at the UNC-GoE rally has been announced. Please join us to hear Dwain Cleveland perform ‘Old Glory’ live at the rally!

Dwain Cleveland and Frank Exum, both veterans, wrote the song to raise money for disabled veterans. “I wrote the lyric and Frank got the music straightened out,” Dwain said of ‘Old Glory’, “but the song came from the folks that didn’t come back from our war - we’re just the delivery boys.” Since then it has become something of an anthem for the folks at GoE, especially since its use in the youtube video ‘Why Eagles Gathered’.

The song, its lyrics, and a bit about the writers can be found here http://www.operationmom.org/oldglory.html

The youtube video ‘Why Eagles Gathered’ is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKk3CMNwtnA
