Fonda: “All I’ll say on the matter is this: In ‘75 or thereabouts, I had a nice steak dinner with Frank Church, and the shit he laid on me about COINTELPro—the extent, man, to which the government was watching us—made the hair on my nipples stand on end. I mean, would you want Tricky Dick and his kinky First Lady wife getting their freak on to wire taps of Sylvia Miles getting you off with a jar of Gordal olives and a Burmese cat?
“Oh—and it was 1976, now that I think about it. I remember, because later that night Hopper dressed himself up in a frilly shirt and three-cornered hat, took off his pants, and stumbled drunk through the Futureworld after party asking all the female extras if they’d ‘like to play his fife.’
“Christ—I thought for sure Yul Brynner was gonna brain him with a potted rubber tree plant. Good times, man. Strange, good times…”*
Fonda: “I starred in Easy Rider, you know.”
Fonda: “And I know what it’s like to be dead, man.”*
I know it. But the question is does Peter Fonda still know that he starred in Easy Rider?
Too bad he never got caught up in the government web sufficiently to get him into rehab before it was too late.
Boy he looked hot in Barbarella.
[and no, I did not just see Brokeback Mountain, either]

Can’t believe I intitially typed Hoffa instead of Hopper.
I need this week to end.
Ummm Jeff,
Louie the Roach and Sammy the Crawfish want to speak with you.

Man, those fucking rich kids got it made!
It’s time for Cheney to nuke Hollywood (with his big you know what..)
DC is F’ing awesome!!
Cheney killed the Halliburton executives in a fit of pique when he found out they had nixed his Iraqi Child Organ Harvesting Program. He goes through two or three hearts a week not to mention livers, kidneys, lungs etc.
Odd fact, he does the transplant surgeries himself while jacked up on nitrous oxide, morphine and lsd. Actually his penis does the surgeries while Dick just sucks on the nitrous and tortures a panda to entertain himself.

So was that Sylvia or Sarah Miles? ‘Cause I know films they could have watched with the latter to get their freak on. Of course, they may not know what ol’ Kris was doing in one scene…
Note to self: buy Peter a nosehair clipper to remove hair from other parts of the body.
Damn, Jeff, I think the commenters are almost back to where they were eight or nine months ago.
….when I was posting endless AC/DC lyrics. Good times.
I saw Fonda on Project Greenlight (scary movie one) and that poor son of a bitch is a shell of a human being. He went to lunch with a couple of the prospective directors and was completely incoherent. He couldn’t tell you what year it was if you gave him a five year hi/lo.
But, all that said, he’s lived the lives of 100 average men.
And now he’s living the life of an average 100-year-old man.
