RIP Ralph Waite (Pa Walton)
« on: February 14, 2014, 12:00:34 AM »
Ralph Waite has gone.
I liked him in what ever role he played. I grew up watching The Waltons. I hope they do him Justice on NCIS.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I, for one, really enjoyed the Waltons. He was a class act, including his time on NCIS. I think "The Waltons" was loosely based on "Spencer's Mountain", one of my favorite Henry Fonda movies. It was some pretty classy programming for it's time.
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith
