'cause thats really all these threads are, don'tcha know.

Tex Avery's real name was Fred.

?So this should be a Fred Thread?

No, it's still a Tex thread.

"Tex" was a S.E. Hinton young adult novel which was turned into a wonderful 1982 movie with a teenage Matt Dillon.

I saw the Outsiders, and left it at that. Never saw Tex...never much of a Matt Dillon fan.

Me neither, but he was very good in Tex. He hadn't yet become "actorly", much less "movie-starry."

Didn't mind him in Outsiders...but I love the aspect of all those actors at the beginning of their careers (or at least pretty close to the beginning) starring in the same movie.

I don't like most of those actors.

And Diane Lane is aging horribly.

and she's.... THREAD HIJACKER!

I can't wait for Diane Lane's daughter to write a "Mommy Dearest" type book.

"Tex Thread" .... sounds like a country western thrift shop of some sort.

Like maybe where you can buy...

Ooooooohhh -Aaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!
Bravo, Bravo!

Take off the hats and boogie on over to the jive thread.
