Tribute to Charlton Heston

[Humpy]

“So that this nation may long endure, I urge you to follow in the hallowed footsteps of the great disobedience of history that freed exiles, founded religions, defeated tyrants, and yes, in the hands of an aroused rabble in arms and a few great men,”

 

[Wayne Gibbous]

RIP Charley, you "Damn dirty ape."

One of my favorite actors as a kid...

Quote from Starstud:

His stance on guns has forever sullied his name

That's an opinion. I'm sure many loved him because of that stance. Quallified statements are more credible.

this is what genius looks like

(hmm i don't recall seeing a thread about him)

"Gould's interpretation of the Cambrian Burgess Shale fossils in his book Wonderful Life emphasized the striking morphological disparity (or "weirdness") of the Burgess Shale fauna, and the role of chance in determining which members of this fauna survived and flourished"

RIP
