- He went to the foley stage. It was the last line he had to record for Rocky III. The director told Stallone, "This is where Clubber Lang hits you-" Stallone put his hand up, then
- pushed his lips up in disgust. "I'm an Act-tor". Everyone had seen Rocky and watched in wonder as Stallone walked away with a statue, but nobody expected him to pimp it into
- a career. I will say this for the Italian Stallion, his movies might be ultra-violent, but he manages to do it without showing one gratuitous female tit. Jean-Claude VanDamme could
- learn a thing or two from Stallone. At least I didn't feel uncomfortable playing Sly's movies during family gatherings. Ultraviolence for children is a-okay. Sex? Not so much.
- Gathered around the warm glow of that old idiot box, steaming eggnog wafting through the air, I still recall the most famous lesson of all: "They drew first blood, not me."
- That was how the Hatfields spent every Christmas. Absolving themselves of responsibility for the 200+ year feud with the McCoys. Eventually egg nog led to corn liquor and
- the uneventful Bingo game where the winner of each game would win a present personally picked out by Grandma Hat.
- The bingo game presents were always chinsey though: a vinyl, gingham table cloth; a glue gun; and, invariably multiple pairs of UnderAlls. Debbie always won and used these items
- on eBay, where she made her small fortune in the elderly market. Those old folks would buy just about anything, she realized. One day, though
- a customer requested the last vial of her "special" lavender oil. She realized that though she'd made a deal with the devil to never use it herself, she couldn't bear to sell it.
