I actually had to look that up; I was more of a Calvera fan (though Tuco was still fantastic). A real loss, though. Still, he always struck me as one of those guys that was just happy to be around, and he had 98 years which I'll bet he enjoyed immensely.

What happens to these people will happen whether I kill you first or not.
Argument, the presentation of reasonable views, never makes headway against conviction, and conviction takes no part in argument because it knows.

I always quote that line from the thread title when I watch movies, most recently with prince Oberyn. RIP


Sycsa is perhaps the most brilliant and insightful man I have ever encountered.

What a great actor.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Ah Tuco; one of my all-time favorite characters from my all-time favorite movie.

"Don't die, I'll get you water. Stay there. Don't move, I'll get you water. Don't die until later."
"Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter; Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man."  Ecclesiastes 12:13

Now with Twitler taking a high end steak of this caliber and insulting the cow that died for it by having it well done just shows zero respect for the product, which falls right in line with the amount of respect he shows for pretty much everything else.- Lonestar
