Has anybody seen Longtooth lately?
I'm sorry LT! I was bored and feeling a little froggy today.
Your friend, OE
That is OK OverEasy. But everyone knows that cannot be me.
He not only has his finger on the trigger but it aint no 1911 & he aint got no Spenders holdin them jeans up.
He does have a little beard but not near enough.

LT's family portrait looks like the A-Team to me!!!
Besides, we all know that the concrete traffic barrier would have afforded pretty good cover...
Somebody said "Dirt nap"??? too sad...but waaaaay too

Robert Sylvester jumps a highway media...
.... sigh
unless "media" is the new singular of "median"..... I don't think the barrier was made of newsprint.

He looks a little too old to be removed from the "shallow end"
of the gene pool but I guess its never too late after all.
What a Bozo.

I just noticed he was wearing New Balance running shoes.
I feel his pain.
As a 3 time marathoner, if you enjoy shin splints New Balance
is your shoe. Ha!

"Sylvester was shortly shot by police."
Um... 'shortly shot'? I mean, you media types can be biased, but poor grammar just doesn't fly.

Robert Sylvester---------------------------Neandertal Man
Notice the pronounced recession of the forehead in Sylvester, indicating less available space for a front brain lobe. The frontal lobe, among other things, handles the reasoning and planning functions in modern man.
But you have to admit the guy looks in great physical shape, especially for his age.
There was once Neandertal Man, kinda dumb by all accounts, but physically a very rugged specimen with a recessive forehead...
Go figure.

This may not be the recommended path to Hollywood but these are great action photos. Somebody should get some sort of award for the camera work.

The photo that started this thread is certainly Pulitzer Prize material. A 57-year-old union iron worker and gambler with a history of violence facing foreclosure running around robbing banks. He's a real poster boy for today's America.

Looks like a quality and caring individual. We will miss him.
