This guy bought paint from the “available” rack.

If I have to tell you, you are way, way, way too young to understand!
But if you must, to quote the movie (made in 1962 so what is now, was not a racial or insultive slur at the time of the movie, so please don’t be offended or triggered or send me nasty emails, or try to sue our man, Frank)
Dialog immediately after this shot was taken (actor was off screen) “My boy Pompeii, at the door.”
Caught the hint?
Still don’t know, google famous movies that included hit songs from the early 60’s. The title of both will give you the name of the fellow portrayed by Lee Marvin.
Sometimes it pays to have just a bit of politeness. 
A background in music will help understand
However, one will note, the notation is not correct.

They are painted like the Mexican restaurants down here!
It used to be cropland.
The best way to deal with rocks you till up, is to relocate them. You should be able to figure it out from here, now.
As someone who has gotten a semi load of rocks from my (admittedly large) garden, I can understand.
The stone walls I have never found but I removed aprox 1quadrillion feet of ancient bob-war from these woods. Some sections were 9 strands vertically
That's one of the reasons why you use that first 8' of the tree for firewood and not for running through the sawmill.The stone walls I have never found but I removed aprox 1quadrillion feet of ancient bob-war from these woods. Some sections were 9 strands vertically
I have walked through the woods . . . with people that can't walk through the woods . . . for a straight mile.
You need to start loading them with "The Turner Diaries..." and "The Poor Man's James Bond."
Oh crap... I'm on another list now...

My garden produces that about every 3 years... frost brings them to the surface.
Every time I till it! Rocks. Rocks and more rocks.
We farm them here in New England. And they keep rising to the surface every spring.

That was the chicken farmers...

Libbity! Libbity!
"Pick it up."
One of the greatest of all time! At so many levels.

Chains don’t like it either bro
I look for the signs but I have missed them a time or two
Every time I disk it up we walk it and get the rocks up. My wife has several piles out there now from when she walked it last week. Eventually we may get em all….who am I kidding
The sharp-eyed will recognize that "Reese" -- one of Lee Marvin's Sidekicks -- is none other than Lee Van Cleef... of The Good the Bad and the Ugly and For a Few Dollars More... among other Western greats!
And for those who are true aficionados of the Western... read up on Woody Strode who played Pompey. Amazing life for that man, too!

Letterman did a pretty good interview with Lee Van Cleef.
Yes, Mr. Strode was an amazing man.
Mr. "what we have here is a failure to communicate" played his part as a psycho really well, he's almost unrecognizable.

I always thought that line was what Strother Martin was most noted. He played a great "cracker" warden.
And TMWSLV is an amazing film in that it was John Ford's "Signoff" from the Western Frontier era. His tribute to the end of the West. It was released well into the color era. But Ford wanted to do it in Black and White as a tribute to his earlier movies like Stagecoach, The Grapes of Wrath and My Darling Clementine... and so many others.
Without a doubt one of the great movies of all time and on so many levels...

For me it ranks in the top 10 best movies of any genre and a strong number one contender for westerns.
It can be watched in its uncut entirety on prime right now.
I always sort of thought that a good 'sequal' to Liberty Valance was The Shootist. Very under-rated Western, but such a great movie on so many levels. Reuniting Jimmy Stewart and John Wayne for the last time. Not that they were in many films together.
Anyway... back to awesome memes! There is a good Westerns thread in Movie Theater. Needs revival!

A rare photo of evil using the flying motorcycle maneuver to kick start his bike.
We went to Bonaza more times than Carter had liver pills. Once my mom found out how cheap their dinners were, she was happy to get a break from fixing dinner that one night a week.
They had a good lunch menu too.
My boys were brought up cruising the junk yards around the house. We'd go every Sunday afternoon after church and before dinner. Some times dinner was delayed depending on what we found.
I had a small side hustle, digging out old a/c compressors then converting them to air compressors for off roaders.
We used to scrounge for wrecking yards for 67' to 72' Chrysler Imperials.
Those came equipped with a steel crank four four oh not only internally balanced also factory blue printed.
Do you remember the Santiam Junction store?
I drank with EK for a month in the summer of '94. He was staying in the same Holiday Inn as our team (TDY) just south of Kansas City, MO, would see him at the bar down stairs most evenings. I got along with him pretty well...he couldn't stand our team chief.
The crazy thing.
Even the poople who voted for him know, its not outside the realm of possibility that he actually said that.
