Trivia on the film

There are unsimulated sex scenes in the movie and Van Peebles got gonorrhea. He applied to the director's guild to get worker's compensation because he was 'hurt on the job'. With the payout he invested it back into the film to help finish it.

Yes - and your nominations thank you

See you in hell white boy

I for one applaud John Elliot, and fondly remember him for being the man who took over Carlton in the mid 80s and ran it down to a point where the club is still crippled a generation after his departure. All non Blues fans should warmly thank him for his contribution to our great game.

I passed out leaflets for her at a polling station when she was running for the Democratic nomination for Texas governor in 1972 when I was a college student in San Antonio. She lost to Dolph Briscoe in a runoff. I wrote about her last year in the US Presidential thread.

Memory eternal
