Dr. Strangelove!

YeeHaa….

Welcome back, Maverick,er, ML!

Li’l Buckaroo Banzai! –Through the 8th Dimension!

YEE-HAW! Ride it to the moon Lio.

Marg…..don’t ya just love James Garner????? (I mean Bro. Brett)!!!!

MontanaLady oh yeah, he was hot! Did you ever watch ‘Cheyenne’ with Clint Walker?

“We’ll meet again Don’t know where, Don’t know when…”

I’d like to make a joke that hasn’t already been done, but there’s Slim Pickins…

Yep, ridin’ through the ole west….an old concept undertaken in a new dimension….outer space. Trust Lio to think of this…

Dad is frozen in disbelief….

This reminds me of something Jethro Bodine would do.

One small step for Lio, one giant hole for dad…

Reminds me more of ‘Early Distant Morning’ by Rush. The video has a boy joyfully riding across the landscape on a missile dropped from a bomber (albeit without the spiffy cowboy duds).

Ah, but Slim’s cancer wassa fallin’ and ended up aworkin’ for Mel Brooks and Lio’s Mercury is rising.

well, hope that thing just a rocket and not a nuke!

Radish, more the anti Slim Pickins –since he’s going up.

Gotta love cartoon physics where you can smash through a wall and neither you nor your rocket is scathed.

Montana Lady & Marge If you like Jim Garner westerns, try the “Support Your Local” Movies (Gunfighter & Sheriff). They are fun.

Lord know why but the first thing I thought of was Ronald Reagan. Sometimes I frighten myself.

Pam, don’t forget “Sunset,” Garner and Bruce Willis. One of his best!

Hats off to Lio, too!

Marg……..never watched Cheyenne…….maybe I’ll catch it on Encore Western sometime.

Pamlicorat…..love Support your locals……..

GoodQuestion………….now………..Sunset is a really good match with Jim and Bruce. Give or take a lie or two!!

Mein Fuhrer, I can fly!

One of my all time favorite movies. I can only assume Lio’s precious bodily fluids are still pure.

“I’m a space cowboy. Bet you weren’t ready for that!”

Hi-ho Stinger, away!

I have had an epiphany… MT must have been heavily influenced by Dr. Strangelove. This is at least the third Slim Pickins reference that I have seen in Lio. Love it!

@baslim - I was just thinking of that. Now I’ll have that tune in my head…

Great one, Mark!

Garner: Boy’s Night Out. Live version of Last Kiss.

No matter where you go…there you are!

Hope that’s not User Friendly’s missile!

I swear Lio’s done this before, donning cowboy garb and riding on a missile
