Mods,

Dear Elord,

The author Charles Portis would like a word.

The novel “True Grit” and the two movie scripts, that heavily relied upon the novel’s original work, are renowned for using the most accurate vocabulary of the south-central American diialect from the mid-18th century.

Everybody knows that.

Please just apologize and we will endeavor to persevere this egregious affront.

You tell that author that I'm coming! And HELL'S COMING WITH ME!!!

Oh and one more thing...

Fill your hands, you son of a bitch!!

 

[Ursa Major]

I simply cannot justify or concede such an egregious affront to my honor. I'd say I would see you at high noon on Saturday to settle this with a duel, but I have plans at that time.

I have actually neither read the novel. I may need to do that!

A saucy line will not get you far with me, sir. I care not to remonstrate this matter further for I do not have the strength nor the inclination to bandy words with a drunkard.

 

[Ursa Major]

C'mon guys - this is Cat Week. This is eGriz. Why are you engaged in a cerebral discussion?

Fair enough

Need to turn our focus and vengeance toward our cowardly neighbors to the east.

JFC, What’s your second favorite western, Young Guns?

 

[mthoopsfan]

So, did the mods do some house-cleaning? Maybe a lot?

Listen, you call me a drunkard, I am going to post that clip and then take a shot to try to get over the insult....

Does My Little Pony count as a Western?

Actual answer is the The Assassination of Jesse James for number two. I'm not actually a Western films, guy. I did wayyyyyyyy too much reading about the period, but I didn't really get into old John Wayne or anything.

Next time you’re in Boise I’ll host a movie marathon. True Grit (1969), True Grit {2010}, and Unforgiven.

I’m sure you’ll end up with a new appreciation for them.

My dad always watches old westerns on the Grit channel, is that a real channel, I think it is. I like some like Tombstone and Silverado Kevin Costner is cute in anything. The new True Grit is better than the old one

What about the lonesome dove series? I’d say also dances with wolves was amazing

If you get the chance check out The Avery, Hoops. The chef earned a Michelin Star at a former restaurant in Brooklyn. Great food and a solid wine list.

There is a historic treasure on Main Street. There, between 10th and 11th, stands one of the city's oldest and most iconic buildings. First a hotel, then a raucous nightclub,

Epi’s is still my favorite restaurant in the valley. Great Basque food.
