The Greatest Actor Ever Passes Away

Charlton Heston played out his final scene at his home last night. He was 84 and was known from such epic films as Ben Hur, The Ten Commandments, and The Agony and the Ecstasy. Heston was also a former National Rifle Association president and pretty much was amazing at whatever he did because he was Charton Heston. He could fight damn dirty apes, part seas, ride chariots, and take on liberals. You will be missed!

Fox News has a great article on The Man! http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,346965,00.html

Mr. Heston was a great actor and only made films that would enhance class, respect and containment of some value for his viewers. The older generation of actors were choosy in the selection of films that they would particpate in. He will be missed.

WRONG -- Clint Eastwood will live forever.

I had the pleasure of viewing an era of classics as a Gen X baby. I am amazed how inventive each and every actor and actress was in the late 60's, 70's and 80's. Now you have digital effects instead of true character and talent. I am thankful for people like Mr. Heston and the dynasty of movie stars that paved the way for today's entertainment. I simply say Thank you.....

ANY MAN WHO STANDS UP FOR OUR SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS THE WAY HE DID IS A GREAT MAN IN MY BOOK. THE NRA WILL MISS HIM GREATLY.

That guy can't hold a candle to Marlon Brando or James Dean.

So, now we can get his gun from him, right?

I pray his rifle is in his cold, dead hands.

Im 9:48. Its a joke. Relax a bit. I apologize for ruffling your sensibilities. I am sure that when someone like Teddy Kennedy dies, you will be the epitome of reverence and respect.

By the way, Heston said we would get his gun when we pried it from his cold, dead hands. I am just seeing if the deal is still on.

Lighten up.

Truly a first class actor and individual, Was married to the same woman for sixty four years, that should tell you something about his character. Don't hear that much anymore, One to two years and GONE!!. Would have made a good U S President !!!
