I rarely watch TV for the simple fact that there isn't anything much on worth watching. Heck, the commercials are more entertaining than all of these "reality" shows that are flooding the airwaves. What I do like to watch, I can only get with satell…
"Movie-trained horses are almost non-existent."
Several years ago I worked on a Mike (Chucks Brother) Norris film.
Not one of the stunt folks there had any horse experience.
They could sure blow stuff ytp tho.....
Yakima Canutt was the best !!
Sometimes a story just gets too 'deep.' An example is Costner's Wyatt Earp film. It was either an hour too long or 3 hours too short. It would have been better as a trilogy--a 2-hr film of the pre-Arizona years, 2 hrs about Arizona, & 2 hrs post-Ari…
At the risk of gettin' religious, just in case there are any athiests, agnostics, or non-Christians in the crowd, I seem to recall that the disciples asked Jesus when the world would end. He told 'em "I don't know. Only the Father knows that." Now,…
In my not so humble opinion, I like others here, believe every day I wake up is a good day. I hope they continue for a long while yet.
As to the movies, I have a neice in Hollywood, a struggling screen writer. She converted my novel (which I consid…
Sorry I went to bed last night and missed a good one. But here’s my two cents. Retired and mover to Arizona bout 7 years ago bought a small house, a large screen TV and a DVD player. Built a barroom (Pix is on my home page). Disconnected the cable T…
I quit watching network TV a long time ago. I watch History Channel, Court TV, Food Channel, Discovery, & occasionally Fox News if something is breaking. I also watch the Weather Channel if there's something bad predicted. We used to have the Outdoo…
Amen to that Santee! A really good modern day with the historical aspect like the newer western films type TV series!!! Yep, I could definitely go for that!
Reality TV has taken over!! Well, not really, but it sure does flood the television market.
We need a new good tv western...
Thank God for DVD's pard. I know I have played every one in my library at least a dozen times and many of them much more than that! I love my westerns!!!
Amen to that Walker. And let's remember our DVD's that have helped us along also, and not forget the true cowboy music and poetry.. Thanks for your input.

Chuck, what are gool old days pard? I know what you're saying. Everything today on TV is violence, noise or plain BS. I'm like you, I watch the Westerns Channel quite often and I do enjoy the programs like Forensic Files, Dr. G and a few other progr…
I thank everybody for the different groups that are available to learn past history about the cowboy days. I just don't understand the cow dung that is on regular TV these days. Not worth watching. I stick to the western channel and other learning c…

Stoney Greywolf Bowers said… - If you are wondering Chuck how I can be a author and working cowboy, it is called time Pard, almost 35 years, and I wrote about America, The Cowboy Way, and on my people and the wilderness as I worked a horseback, and lived deep into my wilderness, while doing it.
Not the easy way, but the cowboy way -- true to life experiences
called REFLECTIONS FROM THE WILDERNESS A COWBOYS JOURNEY.
GO TO www.moonlightmesaassociates.com for validated info.
Much obliged my friend -- until the next go round --

W. R. Benton said… - I've been endorsed by Matt Braun, Stephen Lodge, Don Bendell and a list of million selling authors, just waiting for the money to start rolling in, LOL.
My later work is much better than the work at first. I guess I found my 'writers voice' at some point along the way. War Paint, a book released last year had good reviews, but I spent months researching the thing, which I enjoyed a great deal. It was strange too, once at the computer the story just flowed as quickly as I could type.
Actually, I write because I love telling a tall tale and seeing my work in print. No more money than I make, I'd starve before making it big.
Take care, stay safe and keep yer powder dry pilgrim,

- Thanks for the kind words about my work. I enjoy writing, but it never seems to tell the complete tale. Seems as if I still have more of it inside.
