Thanks for clearing that up.:)

It made Sly a bunch of money so it must have been okay. Next time he's over for dinner I'll ask him his thoughts.:D
The Rambo series of movies have done several things. They have entertained many, many people. They have created an unrealistic view of special forces warfare. They have caused a bunch of people to come to this forum and ask "hey, what do you think of this knife I just bought?" As for realistic....far from it.
They were made to make money. That's 100% true. But hey, it's still a pretty cool storyline and all, I'm pretty sure all of us can agree on that.
Just like watching my perverted cockatiel get self gratification on his pirch this time of the year, Rambo is entertainment.
(I'm not joking about the bird and have pictures to prove it)
Some of us read the book when it first came out, It was different than the movie, I think David Morrow wrote it. If I remember it took place in Tennesee not Oregon. The movie also helped Gil Hibbin.
1- david morrel-read his other books they are the best
2 i;ve got the same problem with my birds too tayho kind of amuzing actually
3 i agree with eimm and eimm the movie came out when i was 12 probably one of the reasons i became a ranger, great entertianment, those green berets thier real badasses(spits) that and troutmans lines in the tent, the best inspired how many young guys like me, same as vin deisel inspired how many knuckle heads to street race.
Bird Porn? I sort of expect that in Stockholm but here on the forum? I wouldn't think that's much to crow about. Pretty cagey.
I'll spare ya'll my descriptions and pics. If you think I'm kidding, go to google and type in something like "horny cockatiel" or something to that effect. You'll get some stuff. It's pretty common.
I'll pass on that googling assignment. Gotta fly this coop.
(Dramatic music starts up) "Yes, boys & girls, Mom's & Dad's, The Rambo films have inspired many wayward youths to re-think their meager lives & try to better themselves by going out into the woods ill-prepared doing really poor Sly Stallone impersonations and carrying really stupid-looking knives!:eek: Guys like Brad & Adrian of the Bare Wilderness Team! And that poor excuse of a survival knife has probably injured more "Survival Enthusiasts" than anything that can be found in the woods!:rolleyes: But hey, don't let me rain on your parade! Add the Rambo films to your movie collection library right next to "Red Dawn". And what the heck does a "horny Cockatiel" have to do with any of this?:confused:
There was a band in my adolescents named the Dead Kennedys, and they had a song about our old pal.
RAMBOZO THE CLOWN
Got a deadly toy
To brainwash your boy
An egocentric muscle thug
Kicks butt on screen like a brat outa hell
Bull****ter in the Indochina shop
Pull the string in his back, we win the war
That we never should have started at all
A cabbage patch terrorist to call our own
Who rewrites history with a machine gun
Don't think about it-KILL IT
That's what we teach your child
RAMBOZO
RAMBOZO
RAMBOZO the Clown
To draft age kids
It sure looks like fun-
"Kill 'em all
And let God sort 'em out."
Like video games-no mess
Just fuel for a mass lapse of common sense
You can be Don Quixote
We'll dice you with our windmill blades
Brawn over brain
Means a happy ending
G.I. Joe in the cereal bowl
Grey shrapnel-flavored chewing gum
Mass murder ain't just painless
Now we've made it cute
RAMBOZO
RAMBOZO
RAMBOZO the Clown
War is sexy
War is fun
Iron Ego
Red Dawn
Be a wolverine. You'll rule the hills
Just get some guns and Cheerios
Any kid can conquer Libya
Just steal a fighter plane
Look who came home in a wheelchair
V.A. Hospital, they don't care
"We're the machine
You're just a tool."
Who fell for the myth of Rambozo the Clown
