Born Losers was a great flick and Billy Jack was pretty cool but I think because my sister was so in love with the guy, I became more of a "Our Man Flint" fan.....

Of course, Billy adhered more to the de oppresso liber mantra so, Billy wins.

A little trivia. The red bearded biker in born loser was the same actor who played the Hand to Hand Combat Instructor in the Devil's Brigade.

And... Jeremy Slate played the "second banana" to TV's "Tarzan" as ex-Navy divers in a "Sea Hunt" clone on television. It was called "The Aquanauts" and I think it only ran part of one season, I think. (Of course, "Mike Nelson" scoffed at a guy who had to dive with a buddy all the time!)

When I used to "hang" with 19th Group at Camp Williams in the 70's and early 80's - most of the guys there had been "extras" in that movie - or so they said!

As TR always says... read more, post less. ESPECIALLY if you're going to make fun of us old enough to know what a drive-in is

Next you're going to tell me you don't remember the drive-thru dairy stores.

Nah, just stirring the pot.

We go here quite often in the summer and my girls have even introduced their friends to it as well. They show first run movies too!

When I was in West Texas, I learned about drive-thru liquor stores!

When you were young, you may have learned the art of negotiation, of appealing to anothers emotions, sense of fair play, and other human interactions at home.

Your education, however, was not complete until you got your license and grovelled successfully at the drive in.
