Hey pallies, always findin' the coolest blogs honorin' our Dino. Today's Dino-find comes from the on-line presence of USA Today and a pad tagged "Pop Candy: Unwrapping Pop Culture's Hip And Hidden Treasures." (To view, just clicks on the tagg of this here Dino-post.)
A dude tagged Jimmy C. shares his favorite classic cowboys...Lucas McCain, The Lone Ranger, Bat Masterson, Matt Dillon...and, of course, our Dino as Van Morgan in "5 Card Stud"...sayin': "any cowboy ol' Dino played was great."
Ain't it amazin' how many different ways that pallies are drawn to Dino-devotion...singin', jokin', and a huge variety of filmed performances includin' as Jimmy C. notes our Dino amazin' ability to play a boy of cows...
Likes reads Jimmy's commentary below and note that I have found and posted the stellar Dino-clip that he aludes to in his Dino-prose as well as a cool set of shots that I found on the web. Gotta says pallies, I never ever gets tired of readin' the astoundin' number of tribs to our Dino all over the Dino-web! Thanks to Pop Candy and Mr. Jimmy C. for liftin' up the name of our Dino and sharin' his unabashed Dino-admiration with others. Dino-sharin', DMP
Today's Pop Five: Jimmy C.'s favorite classic cowboys
Today's contribution comes from Jimmy C. in Raleigh, N.C.:
We used to play cowboys and Indians a lot as boys. Here are my Pop Five cowboys that I loved from the glory days of TV:
5. Van Morgan (played by Dean Martin), 5 Card Stud -- This is a movie, not a TV series, but any cowboy ol' Dino played was great. I like to quote the showdown scene when Martin confronts Robert Mitchum (who plays a preacher) about being the murderer. Mitchum had a gun hidden in a Bible. Martin: "If that's a Bible, start reading. If its not, you drop it."
I love this film!
ReplyDeleteOf course, our Dino is in it.
But I've long been a fan of Robert Mitchum's too.
BTW, sorry that I haven't been around lately, DMP. Tough situation going on in this household with Mr. AOW's stoke recovery.

DMP,
ReplyDeleteMr. AOW is greatly improved, but I have to be involved in helping him with his therapy exercises here at home.
And, of course, I have to prepare all meals, dole out the meds, do the laundry, etc., etc.
Dino is the best stress reliever around, I tell ya.

ReplyDeleteHey pallie, glads to hear of Mr. AOW's improvement and that we are of likes one accord on the ultimate value of chillin' with our Dino....keeps Dino-focused to keeps our cool....
ReplyDeleteIn the movie, Dean had those 5 cards framed from one of his poker games but no one knew what the last card was- so they didnt know if he actually had a straight flush or if he was bluffing but he never told anyone what it was...
ReplyDeleteHey pallie, gotcha Miss Catie...I does own the DVD of "5 Card Stud" but havin' viewed it yet....so much Dino....so little Dino-time...thanks for the Dino-explainin'..........
