  1. Did he ever pay Tatum that $200? Paper Moon was my favorite Ryan O’Neal pic as well. I rather liked Barry Lyndon for its depiction of the period, what, mid 1700s Europe? Some nicely buxom wenches there, mate, and cap and ball pistol duels. Bet Farrah wore that ass plumb out. Surprised he made it to 82.
  2. Clark bundled up freezing and crying in the attic wearing the turban watching old super 8 movies makes Mrs. Llama cry every time.
  3. Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. My favorite scene was inside the Road Warrior’s car speeding doen the highway, the look on the tied up skycopter geek’s face when the wonder dog, holding a stick in his teeth wired to the triggers of the sawed off shotgun, twitched when a rabbit ran by. Second favorite: when the bad guy “announcer” reach up to grab the boomerang and hig fingers were converted to vienna sausages. Followed by the feral kid’s howl of triumph! Best full speed road action film work ever.
  4. Killers of the Flower Moon. Very well done, IMHO. At least some of the thieving, murdering sonsabitches got justice in the end. Book was excellent, too. Live radio wrapup epilogue was a nice touch. Movie made me want to drive a vintage motor vehicle. Don’t need a Pierce Arrow; a Model A Ford would do.
  5. For anyone not tied to a schedule and looking for a really good Cajun meal not too far off the beaten path, I can recommend Pat’s Fisherman’s Wharf in Henderson, LA, about 20 miles from I-10 on the edge of the massive Atchafalaya Swamp between Lafayette and Baton Rouge. Here’s the view from the deck: This place is plenty good and has been for a long time. Hook ‘Em! Eat ‘em.
  6. When is the CFP 4 actually released?
  7. The Committee always follows the path of least resistance, ergo: 1. 17 years of SECSECSEC / Bama fatigue 2. Georgia loses - OUT 3. UM, UDub, FSU win - STAY IN 4. Texas wins and pantsed Bama in game 2 End of story - the only intrigue will be seeding. Bama plays Ohio State on Jan 1 - ugh but tid what tis. Congrats Longhorns. See y’all down the trail. Interesting road trips ahead!
  8. Relax. Horns will be in and deservedly so. My guys may get left out. Given the way things looked after Bevo wiped his ass on the cursive A in the middle of Bryant-Denny, I couldn’t ask for a better ending to the season for Bama. Michigan UDub Texas FSU. I will savor the shredding of Michigan, whoever does it. Roll Horns.
  9. That, and for early season games when it’s hot as fuck around game time and still daylight out, when the GGs stand at attention, one may observe little dainty drops of sweat falling from the tips of their pert little noses straight down into the lovely valley between their perfect heaving boobs. Picture me as Mel Brooks with the secretary in Blazing Saddles!
  10. Definitely go there when you hate the visiting team. Stroll over to the North Stadium Drive side of the stadium about an hour before kickoff. Have some boudin, a good stiff drink and a nice stogie. Get a local to show you exactly where the band sets up for “Pregame” before they go into the stadium. You won’t regret it:
  11. From your lips to the committee’s ears. Hope you’re right but this bs is so subjective. Weirder, more unjust shit has happened.
  12. Here’s a nasty scenario to cause Surly hysteria: Michigan crushes Iowa. FSU wins the ACC. Bama beats Georgia in an ugly, sloppy game. Texas boatraces Okie State but the committee doesn’t care because they’re enamored with the BIG and Oregon/Washington. CFP: Michigan, Oregon/Washington winner, FSU, Ohio State The cruelest irony: Bama plays Texas in a NY6 game. Improbable? So was 4th and 31
  13. For decades this game had 50/50 seating at Legion Field and was more intense and special because of it (see, e.g., every Texas/OU game played at Cotton Bowl Stadium). I miss that but otherwise, it is always a nerve wracker. I like the TX/OU seating divided at the 50 yard line best. Bama/Auburn was always divided at the goal posts. College football never gets old. IMHO the tag “Iron Bowl” only applied to 50/50 games in Birmingham.
  14. The only sound heard on the Plains tonight is the mirthless laughter of the damned. Those fuckers can’t suffer enouugh. Playing with house money now. Good luck Horns in the CFP adventure. You’re in. It was meant to be, like 4th and 31 tonight.
  15. After wandering in the wilderness for thirteen years Coach: X QB: X QB of the future: X Path to #1: X Saludos, denizens of Surly.
  16. My brain turned inside out at the scene with skinny lead actress housewife pdycho mom knitting on the couch as masked guy walked up onto the deck . . . Homages left and right like golden Easter eggs. Great stuff. Music has big juice. First two episodes- big thumbs up ”Anyone takes my stuff does not get to live.” Can’t get JJL, as she was in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, out of my head. Which makes me think of Phoebe Cates’ fine face, ass and tawny, perfect tits . . . Uhhh, . . . I gotta go!
  17. Best assholes on the internet- I contend: Horns keep winning Bama keeps winning Both make CFP - Herbstreit speechless Mama Llama making her mother’s scrumptious dressing. Nothing else needed but something good to drink and some football to nod off to. Saludos, my future SEC fellers. May old Scratch take the hindmost.
  18. Joe Don - got to be Elvis’s distant Mis’sippi cousin. Delivers lines with the exact same mumbly panache minus the lip curl.&
  19. Ridley had me at Blade Runner. In for Napoleon despite all reactions, lukewarm and otherwise. Melt down the enemy cannons and build a monument yourself. The emperor of ego, got to be interesting.
  20. Nice turnout at JMU. Too bad they weren’t scheduled as a cupcake for some P5 team today. Bravo the Dukes.
  21. Here’s an interesting one from 1968 for Taylor/Burton fans. Liz was in her early 40s and still so vicious and gorgeous and Burton appeared to be drunk in most scenes a la Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Noel Coward has a cool cameo as the Witch of Capri. Fine cinematography. It was and has been panned but IDGAF, I liked it. BOOM!
  22. Two things about the opening scene stay with me. The background music as the staff car and escort bikes slowly wind up the road in a pristine pastoral valley was “The Green Grass of Summer.” This was a theme featured in The Alamo (John Wayne), which shocked me as a young kid as my first images of death in battle, not Disneyfied Fess Parker, my boyhood idol. Next and most vividly, the camera zooming down through the floorboard gaps to reveal, as they came into focus, the eyes of those hidiyin the cellar. Give me a QT film any day.
  23. “Bama (hypothetically) beats Georgia” . . . add internet CFP ranking rant. Have you guys ever watched any fucking part of a Bama - Auburn game? There’s a possibility we handle Georgia but it means nothing unless we overcome the incessant noise and inevitable juju at Possum Hair stadium. Talk to me on Sunday after Thanksgiving. After 9/9/23 I’m just relieved we have a pulse, much less a chance. If we do beat Georgia after choking on the Plains, I hope it puts the Horns in the playoff.
