Title: Make that Rev. Cowboy
Post by: cozmik_cowboy on February 25, 2018, 01:47:28 PM: Yes, as of yesterday, I am a duly ordained priest in The Church Of The Latter-Day Dude!

so the initial revelation happened in the shower one morning before work; I guess I was chosen...Lorne Greene was borne to Jewish parents and grew up in a farm family outside Ottawa, his first major job was as a CBC war correspondent known as the voice of God, after the war he started a school of journalism' teaching how to spread the truth, the news...then Bonanza where he taught his boys how to be good men in the wild west...Alpo commercials where he taught about kindness to animals, and his nature show about the wonders of nature...Earthquake where he selflessly sacrifices his own life for others; then the penultimate role as commander Adamas in Battlestar Galactica leading his people to the promised land of earth...so Marshall Macluan was sorta right as the medium was still the messenger, but we missed the message...There is more but it's too late for that now...

In Battlestar Galatcica, he played a patriarchal figure guiding 3 boisterous young men through life on a frontier.
Such depth as an actor! ;D
But seriously, you have thought this out well.

Post by: David Houck on February 27, 2018, 03:25:02 PM: "Penultimate" is one of those words I used to think meant something very different than what it actually did, which would lead to me completely missing the point being made. Used in a sentence, it is sometimes, but certainly not always, the penultimate word.

Excuse the hijack; it's just an interesting word.

Post by: peoplechipper on February 27, 2018, 11:56:45 PM: Peter, it is true what you say, but I think that was studio budget on galactica; there was a lot of ugly stuff to make for that show...ever notice the Pontiac Aztek looks like a vehicle from the show?...anyway, I should do something with my cult, if only to be a positive one...mind you, I'll look into Dudeism as it can't be bad...but really, the whole thing came to me out of nowhere in the shower; when I told it to my coworkers they said 'sign me up'...
