I passed him on Church St. once, same time frame. I have always thought that I missed my chance to punch him in the nose. So sad, what happened to VT.

Lots of us thought the same thing about him. Ironically he bought a vacation lake property in my town which is on an Island in Lake Champlain. Luckily he doesn't spend much time here and I never ran into him.

On request of the Commandant of the USAIS at Ft Benning, I was assigned to take him out to lunch. - I was THRILLED & considered it an honor.

Yes I certainly do. I knew a lot of heavy duty guys; you would get chills reading their actual citations or justifications for the awards! Joe Dunford was a Captain back then.

sbrmike,

I asked the Major where he wished to eat & he said, "I don't suppose that the old Streamliner Diner is still open?"

"I said, "Indeed it is. I ate breakfast last week there."

He said, "I want one of those 'saddle-blanket steaks', if they still fix them, with fried potatoes."
(The Streamliner sold a steak that they called a "saddle-blanket" & that "hung off all around" the large platter.)

After lunch, the Major said, "I feel at home now, as I remember those steaks being just the same in 1964."

NICE gentleman, in the BEST sense of the word, is COL Donovan!!!

yours, tex

[quote=kaboku68]I threw Obama out of my dorm room when I was a senior in college. He was in Law school with his first asian girl friend and was trying to get play from drunk girl right in front of her. I grabbed him by his scrawny little neck and picked him up and hauled him outside. We had Joshua Redman hitting jazz sets and our dorm room was cool as all hell.I also had an altercation with him in a pickup basketball game when he trying to drive the lane and I stayed home. He whined about that as well. He was a little priss then and he didn't change one bit. I got audited 7 times in 8 years when that azzhole was Prez. I received 15 grand in returns after Trump took over because those bloodsuckers were overzealous and my accountant noticed that they were wrong on each one of the returns.

You could have done this country a great service if you had just strangled the little SOB when you had the chance.

When I got laid off nine years ago union called, gave me a movie job. Talked with Gerard Butler for a few minutes, he seemed fairly down to earth. If I had to guess, probably a closet conservative. All the rest of the famous actors on set came across like royalty, Elizabeth Shue, Abigail Spencer.. except the character actors, you know, the ones your recognize, but don't know their names, they were OK.

Like this guy here, been in a ton of movies, but you wouldn't know who he is.. smile

[Linked Image]

Talked with him for about an hour, super nice guy..he works just enough to live and travel with his wife. I think he is settled in AZ and just flies out to small character rolls.

One day Richard Egan came into the clinic and wanted an eye exam. He was visiting friends who i cared for in Midland.

A few months after getting married my wife was walking the cocker in our apt complex when Trampas from the Virginian approached her and asked if she was taken. Her loss.

Twice in airports and once at an art gallery in Dallas people camd up wanting her Linda Carter Wonder Woman autograph.

Twice in airports on hunting trips and while wearing my Fred Bear type stetson i was accosted by some who thought i was Harrison Ford. My loss. Dayom, i shoulda thought about selling a fake autograph.

Carlos Hathcock and I used the same tax preparer in the 1980's. Since l drove in the same direction as he lived (he lived in the Pembroke area of Virginia Beach, VA ), the preparer asked me to drop off his return. I met him at the door and just said hello and that I'd enjoyed his book.

Hank Junior was coming into a gunshop in Missoula Montana as I was leaving. He opened the door for me.

I said "I appreciate it" and he nodded back.

That's the only celebrity I have ever "met".

Shook hands with Lyndon Johnson not long after he became President. My mother took me to a speech he gave in my hometown in Georgia when I was about 8 years old.

I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.
