NEWS NEVER CHANGES: GUN SENSE AND SENSIBILITY – TOM CURLEY

For Fandango's Flashback Friday I’ve been thinking about why this country is so gun crazy. The craziest of the crazies keep saying: "The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun." This is, of course, ridiculous. Then it hit me. It's our fault so many people … Continue reading NEWS NEVER CHANGES: GUN SENSE AND SENSIBILITY – TOM CURLEY

YOU TELL’EM I’M COMING…

Sometimes, you need to see the good guys win. You need to see them shoot down the bad guys. As often as not, you wish you could shoot the bad guys and not necessarily fictional bad guys. Real ones. The problem is, you're just not that kind of person. I think every American has a … Continue reading YOU TELL’EM I’M COMING…

WHERE’S MY COFFEE?

We are sitting here in our living room watching "The Man From Laramie (1955)," Anthony Mann's psychological revenge saga starring James Stewart. It's one of Stewart's grittier roles and the cast is A-list.
