    THOSE OLD WESTERNS!
    One look at this film clip and you'll be young and old all over again. It is "brand new" even listing 2010.

    BUT WAIT -- THERE'S MORE!!!! Ever wonder just who all those minor characters were who populated western after western with few lines and a familiar face.

    Well, the clip has pictures and names -- so after 50 or so years -- say "Howdy" to some of those general store, saloon keeper, blacksmith mini-heroes from your youth.

    Just click on the link below and enjoy -

    Ah... Those westerns! :D

    Really enjoyed seeing Eli Wallach's picture! He played as Tuco (The Ugly), in the film The Good The Bad And The Ugly. A movie which perhaps had the greatest part to play in shaping my own personality, (as much as a movie can anyway). Because of this clip, I was right now really inspired to do a search on Google for Eli Wallach - So guess what? He is still around, see links below! :D

    Actually, this now also reminded me of Ronald Reagan, who later became POTUS! It's actually a very funny story, regarding what I did in my childhood (trying to imitate him in the early 1980s). But that I think I will later write about in a blog.
