The Gold Rush was the real name of store owned by Anthony Spilotro.....the guy that Nicky Santoro is based on.
Carl Spacker's Bent. It's a cross between kentucky bluegrass, featherbed bent, and northern California sensamillia....or something, I'm sure I've messed up that spelling. You can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon and get stoned to the bejeezus belt on it at night.
I actually just saw Pee-Wee's Big adventure for the first time a month or so ago (group of friends does movie night every month or so). I had a roommate in college who did lines from the movie, and it just seemed SO FUCKING ANNOYING. Anyway, long story short ... movie was actually really good. And yeah - Pee Wee needed to jump all over Dottie. The Bicycle Thief is an excellent movie that 99.9% of people have never heard of.
new one --- what was the name of Judge Smails law student that was clerking for him over the summer ?
