    Will Ferrell does a fantastic take off of Harry. Watch it on YouTube.

    #LetsGoSwitzerlandThe Man Who Does Not Read Has No Advantage Over the Man Who Cannot Read. The biggest obstacle to progress is a habit of “buying what we want and begging for what we need.”You get the Freedom you fight for and get the Oppression you deserve.

    Well I’m so old when you say Harry Carey I think of the old western actor, mentor to John Wayne. He played the sheriff in angel and the Badman and was in many other westerns. And I think Harry Carey jr. was in the searchers. The blond kid, he also had a nice career.

    I was driving cross country (2001) and stopped to eat. I got back into the truck and on the radio was a baseball game broadcast. during a 40 day and 40 night rain delay. That call by Harry Carry caught my undivided attention.
    I was amazed at how well done this story merged as one LoL. First time for me.
    Was "Jesus On the Mound" and "Field of Dreams" based one of Harry's naps ?
    What ?
