^O'Hara is a Mick after my own heart, but tales about poor little rich boys quickened with a silver spoon in one hand and another spoon shoved up the yazoo, feeling sorry for themselves fail to hit the spot anymore. Been there, read that. I just gotta read this. :cool:- Harp

Lizzie is probably occupied this Friday with more pressing matters.

DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects
Kruger used a crossbow in The Wild Geese, a cutdown weapon often used for silent sentry take. His character's London pub scene introduction was memorable. Always liked Kruger, man had credibility.- Harp

DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects
@Turnip: I referenced Kruger's acting ability and innate talent. He frankly reminded me of a German gentleman I met while in Munich, a veteran of the Second World War as a soldier in Yugoslavia, whom eluded Soviet capture for French Foreign Legion enlistment and Indochina service.

The Agents of F.L.A.S.K.
I touched upon this earlier today in another thread. Backstretch word, public domain knowledge, news, and some speculative cast is that a certain CEO of the Stronach Corp ordered the ponies ridden hard, inhumanely so. Perhaps drugs were used, but the resultant deaths pointed a finger at this CEO...- Harp

The Agents of F.L.A.S.K.
American thoroughbred graded stakes are subject to empirical data collection, said data being put to exacting rigorous analysis; yet instinctual lessons hard learned at track betting drive home the importance of subjective consideration.

The Mandela Effect
Custer was treated for syphilis at Ft Sill, Oklahoma earlier in his career and this disease might account erratic command decisions although, like his possible suicide, remain merely speculative.

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf meets Goodbye Mr Chips is fodder for film of course but invariably leads back to self same conclusion however cast, served, or spun.

Kruger also played Rommel in I believe War and Remembrance. He had a presence on camera that is innate, a thespian craft skill that cannot simply be taught. RIP- Harp
