Goodbye Snowman...


My favorite movie is Smokey and the Bandit. Hands down. Well, that and The Quiet Man. But Smokey is one of those quotable movies. My most favorite movies are. Of course, Jackie Gleason was the show-stealer in this movie ("If they'da cremated the sumbitch, I'd be kicking that mistuh Bandit's ass around the moon by now."), but I always liked Cletus Snow--the one Snowman. He was the straight-man, sorta, to Burt Reynolds' Bandit, and was indispensible--nobody could have played Snowman but Jerry Reed.

Oh yeah--he was also a country-western legend, and one helluva picker

I will miss you son...
