"Looks like the Lone Ranger has been shopping at Goodwill. Nothing against Goodwill. Is that really a button collar shirt he's wearing? Come on!"

"Rather fun movie I thought. Have it on DVD and have been known to watch it again a couple of times. Some of the leads in it I have seen doing small parts in other films. Very well made film."

"That's messed up Charley. Not telling somebody they are the star of a porn.
Read the TV Guide review and they call it trash. Did he find out as he watched it like at a premier, or just readin reviews after it came out?"

Are you going to see Cowboys and Aliens?
Who all is going to see Cowboys and Aliens this weekend? I guess I will, although I am a bit apprehensive, being a conservative, traditional kinda guy. Just don't know how I will like the mix. But, I figure the guns, clothes and scenery will keep me occupied, even if the story is weak. What about you?

This website
Hey BBB,
Just wanted to say. . . . I 'cruise' the net quite often, always looking for websites about the West, but this is the best by far. I live in Tennessee (a great and beautiful state) but I love the West and the lifestyle. Your website makes me feel like I am a part of it. Thanks amigo. BTW, I would love to visit the TWmag headquarters someday!
