Made a bunch of old movies? Gene Autry That's him!! I had Audie Murphy stuck in my mind and couldn't think. Anywayz, Many years ago some channel started running all those Autry movies on Sat. afternoon. Mom taped them all (there were a bunch!!) and I decided to watch one. Lo and behold there's the Duke, with a bit part, looking bout 19 and playin one of the bad guys all dressed in black and all. Mom said she thought it might have been one of the few times he ever played a bad guy. Purty sure I got the story right. It was many moons ago.

Yeah, I know but in fairness to me this was before his politics was widely known. oldfat&bald wrote: smokeyjoe53 wrote: Did I ever tell ya'll I once played polo with Tommy Lee Jones?.................
