Hello all,

I was recently sent an e-mail about a new forum dedicated to selling knives. It can be seen at:
http://www.knifecorner.com/cgi-local/Ultimate.cgi?action=intro&BypassCookie=true

Just copy this and paste it in your brower's web address window. No spaces or changes.

The comments on it are a little harsh concerning this forum. They claim this new forum was created in responce to BF charging to sell knives between members. Remembering what happened when this change took place, there were many upset about this. I was among them. I had bought many knives from the old section here on BF, and miss it greatly. The new set up is hard to use, follow, search and respond to.

Oh well....

There was this movie I watched once. Had a great couple of lines that I liked, and I think they are appropriate:

"What we have here is..... failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach..."

Sometimes I catch myself assuming that everybody knows their way around a pocket knife. Then I remember what the first three letters of "assume" are.

Actually, I think it was "Deliverance".

It's also at the start of the Guns & Roses song "Civil War"

There it continues....

"What we've got here is....Failure to communicate....Some men you just can't reach. So, you get what we had here last week..... which is the way he wants it......Well, he gets it"

Not sure which came first.....

James,if you were wondering about the song and the movie, Cool Hand Luke was out long before G&R's song.

Cool Hand Luke. No doubt about it.

But be careful where you repeat this phrase. Paul Newman was shot in the neck for saying it.

Cool Hand Luke does indeed precede the G&R song, but the quote in the G&R song is from what sounds like an elderly southern woman.

I think the quote either predates Cool Hand Luke or something else happened between the movie and the G&R song that caused Slash and Axel(?) to use it.

Deliverance is a GREAT cult movie! My wife HATES it! She won't watch it with me or let the kids watch it.

Remember, "Squeel like a pig..."

Some people just don't get the significance of exactly what is being presented in that movie. This is real life, and, yes, this S**t happens; I don't know how often, but it does. I just thought the movie was fascinating. I would like to get it on DVD. Can anyone tell me the cheapest place to buy it online?

Ciao for now...

Ghecko, actually, that phrase in the song is directly from the movie. When the actor(can't think of his name) says it, it is rather high pitched. I thought it was dubbed in the movie the first time I saw Cool Hand Luke.

That elderly southern sounding woman's voice is the classic voice of Strother Martin (the Captain) in the classic 1967 movie Cool Hand Luke. As far as Guns N Roses, Jeez Louise, Axl Rose was only 5 years old when that tremendously FAMOUS line came out.

Oh come on, don't you think you're being a little harsh and alarmist with that first statement?

Anyway... have you tried either Amazon, or Barnes & Noble? I have had pretty good luck getting off-the-wall music, and old book printings, from one or the other of those. And they carry movies now. Or at least I think they do.

i agree with gheko,it does sound like a crusty old southern woman.oh well,gnr is still the greatest band to have ever walked the earth.

Strother Martin (I can't remember exactly how to spell his name) said it first in Cool Hand Luke. And then Paul Newman said it mockingly and THAT's why he got a bullet in the neck. But Strother is dead now and Paul Newman is still living so there's justice for ya! BTW, how does Paul Newman drink so much beer and still stay skinny?

You guys are too cool.

I don't think I was being "harsh" with my statements on Deliverance, it's just that I know from personal experience that it totally incenses and infuriates my wife. I really want my son to watch it with me, but she won't let me...

Personally, I think it is a great movie, well done; I am somewhat of an outdoor enthusiast, and the scenery was magical. It would be nice to get out to the deep woods for a while like that, kick back, drink a bit, talk guy (knife!) talk, etc...
