    Movies where the actor was irreplaceable in the role

    The director would have to summon the proper performance out of Franco, which may prove less bother than it sounds. It's a role he could both sink or shine as only any actor worth a damn who can expand his/her range with a good script and passable direction might.

    Movies where the actor was irreplaceable in the role

    Iconic performances I liked were Charles Bronson as Harmonica and Jason Robards as Cheyenne in Once Upon A Time In The West. Or Roy Scheider in All That Jazz, Lee Marvin in Paint Your Wagon, etc. For TV shows Ian McShane as Al Swearengen in Deadwood would get my vote, but I do feel there would...

    How the chartered flight for Afrikaner refugees to the United States was approved

    Farm attacks are too common. Other just as serious crimes much more so. White genocide is hyperbole. Paranoia can have you believe we are on the cusp of it being a reality. Realistically, paranoia is blatant overreaction. With the current unpredictability of global politics we are better off...

    U.S. pastor Josh Sullivan abducted [UPDATE: Found and Rescued]

    I haven't any faith our reputation will be on an upward swing within my lifetime, but if he does preach again, I am interested in what it is about. Nothing I see happening in this country has me thinking tourists seriously consider us in their vacation plans, but it is not an informed opinion.

    U.S. pastor Josh Sullivan abducted [UPDATE: Found and Rescued]

    If he should be found and is still good to preach, his first sermon should be on prayer. I'm certain he is currently getting more than enough practice.

    South Africans suck at driving

    Would our roads be safer if upon a collision instead of an airbag popping out of the steering wheel it was a ten-inch steel spike? (Passenger still gets an airbag.)

    JFK experts scour newly unsealed assassination files

    80,000 pages? Wasn't that the length of Stanley Kubrick's script for the Zapruder film? I heard JFK's last words were, "Look dear, the Texas Book Depository."

    JFK experts scour newly unsealed assassination files

    If the files don't show it was Dean Martin who shot JFK and that he was aiming for Jackie for putting an olive in his Martini during a visit to the White House, then whoever compiled them has no imagination...

    Sheriff: Gene Hackman, wife found dead in Santa Fe home; no foul play suspected

    "How do you die in a mushroom?" "Mudroom." "Yes, mushroom. Must've been a really gigantic mushroom too, Gene was large, even if he looked like he's being hogging the Ozempic of late. Perhaps he thought he could make a comeback. He'd make a great Geppetto." "MUDROOM!"

    Jimmy Carter, 39th president and Nobel Peace Prize winner, dies at 100, his son says

    A better president than most of his contemporaries. Be that as it may, and this is unimportant, but the answer may inform more folk than I imagine: Who is currently the best known living peanut farmer?

    I'm drunk!

    I believe that is what I tried with the second bottle I bought. It made no difference to the taste.

    I'm drunk!

    Absinth tastes awful. The handful of times I've bought a bottle I've been disgusted by the taste. Never could find anything it mixes well with, and cannot ever remember finishing the last third of the bottle but marveled at the state of my place afterwards.
