It was a terrible fight - the screams were enough to curdle your blood. (snip) The king is dead - long live the king. Bev I'm sorry, but this reminded me of a scene from the film 'Dances with Wolves'. You may recall when he met the man who sent him to his post out west... the guy folded his orders up into a tiny ball then gave a wierd salute. And a few minutes later he was standing at the window saying "The King is dead; long live the king" before blowing his brains out. Totally whacked. John kept doing that funny salute when I said something nutso. He cracks me up. We still can't figure out why Costner put that scene in the movie. Jill |

The king is dead - long live the king. All *right*!!!!! Good for Clyde. Hope ol' Deo has learned his lesson well. On a side note, the seige of Diablo, the grey semi-feral that terrorized our neighborhood all last summer, ended on an ironic note. After months of his attacks, umpteen visits to the vet, searching the grounds for signs of Diablo's presence before letting Hobo and Speckles out, an inordinate amount of time staying outside with them to supervise (not always successfully), rescuing them at the first sign of Diablo's appearance, Hobo & Speck became indoor-only kitties due to Hobo's 3-day disappearance and subsequent illness. The tension eased. The irony, unfortunately, is that Diablo's body was found on a busy nearby-street in early spring. Actually, I was saddened at this "solution" and miss his stalking. The poor guy knew little in life but folks throwing things at him, yelling, chasing him away - no love at all; though my neighbor and I both put out food for him, he accepted no overtures of friendship. Bottom line, it's great that Clyde finally put Deo in his place. Good for him. (But I'm glad the King isn't *really* dead!!!!)

Jill I still can't figure out why he made "Waterworld" :P I remember when that movie came out, I met my brother for lunch-- I sat down across from him in the restaurant, and just said one word: "Waterworld." He cracked up, and we both giggled like idiots for awhile. Speaking of Costner, I watched "Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves" laat week, and that is one of the most schizo experiences I've ever had watching a movie. Costner's flat-voiced, Valley Boy, mullet-headed Robin Hood is pure agony, while Alan Rickman's insane Sheriff of Nottingham is pure joy. That movie was when I fell in love with Rickman.

I don't "get" Costner, either. I never saw Waterworld or the other films but even in 'The Bodyguard' his monotone delivery just left me flat. It worked okay in 'Dances with Wolves' when he was allegedly reading from a diary. But come on, put some life into it when you're suppose to be acting! Give me Mel Gibson any time! Jill |
