(Edward Heddy Jr.)
told me the urban myth about Clint Walker about 20 years ago, it wasn't until a couple years ago I saw that Clint Walker was still alive (and he still is at age 90, Will Hutchins will be 88 soon, Ty Hardin just passed away last year) and then a few months ago I heard about Eric Fleming and figured the urban myth about Walker must have sprung from that.
You are very welcome and I love classic TV and classic movies!
Thx

speculating that Clint would have made quite a meal for those piranha fish!
Fleming drowned in the Huallaga River in Peru while shooting MGM's "High Jungle" when his dugout canoe overturned, his co-star swam to safety, Fleming was swept away.
Thx

I'd be careful though. There could be an army forming.

He was pretty much entirely penis
I changed the title line from feet to inches, because an eighteen foot penis is just bragging.

hosts a weekly YouTube/podcast program called "Fun with Fags." In it, he discusses (but never smokes) one or two brands of cigarettes from around the world, with particular attention paid to the brand's country of origin, manufacturing process, and "tar" content. The program has an enormous following in the United States of America, achieving an almost cult-like status amongst the Anglophile community.

(25,719 posts)My great-grandfather was born there in 1863. I don't know when he left. (I think the loss of the Civil War changed things. Most of my family on that side were well off prior to the war) He was in Georgia around 1900 where he got married. Him and his wife then moved to Winter Haven, Florida. Although he was born on a plantation, his death certificate lists him as a "Grove Worker".
