    Ooooh, what's a Bank Holiday? Do the banks close down for a day or two?

    Whew! I think my liver still aches a bit after the Første maj festival in Copenhagen - very similar to Labor Day elsewhere, but with loads of celebrations! I have never encountered many fields with a few hundred thousand people, all drinking, dancing to extraordinarily humorous Socialist music, and amusement park rides. I still have sunburns as my scars!

    You are such a pretty girl, there is no reason to be bashful.

    You can say that anytime. Charlie Sheen is unwatchable and can't act. Luckily, most of his parts, he plays.... Charlie Sheen. He's a moron. You couldn't pay me to watch him. His brother/s and old man can act, though.
    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    I was going to say...(and yet we agree again Atheist)... I think that Martin Sheen is a great actor. Who's his brother/s? Emilio?

    Yep. I've enjoyed him in everything I've seen him in. Quite Sean Penn-like, who I enjoy as well.

    I thought there was another one as well, but it seems not.

    Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez were brothers? I never knew. But I can see the resemblance now in my mind's eye.

    I remember Emilio Estevez with Harry Dean Stanton in Brian Cox's cult Si-Fi movie 'Repo-Man' What a strange yet compelling movie it was too! It gives meaning to all those little green trees (air fresheners) that people hang from the mirrors in their cars. Weird film...It makes me laugh just thinking about it.

    Absolutely!

    Mind you, any film with Harry Dean Stanton in is worth the price of several admissions. Greatest character actor ever. The end.

    He even pops up in a Ry Cooder video - Get Rhythm - which is also brilliant.

    With 'the end' it is very hard to continue conversation, unless someone is found to disagree with your respective opinions. I don't know enough of Harry Dean Stanton's work to either agree or disagree, so I will drink too much whisky and have a shouting match at the bar with my imaginary friend Harold.

    Are you sure he is not called "Harvey"?
