I'll put such a strangle hold on your gun money...
I don't give a shit whether you did or not, and neither will anyone else. I'll put such a strangle hold on your gun money that you'll be out on the street throwing ROCKS!
I WILL FUCKING DESTROY YOU! I'll make it my mission in life.

Good flick. Book's even better. If you haven't read it let me know; I think I have the paperback in a box here I can mail your way.

I've got all of Clancy's books.
ISTR having watched Patriot Games and annoyed they deviated so far from the book. Maybe I'll have to watch it again.

"In Sum Of All Fears", the PC Police got all up in arms about Middle Eastern Men being made the terrorist bad guys, so everyones' favorites from WW2 were hauled out again made the bad guys. Also, the movie was set to release in the Fall 2001, but 9-11 happened and it was pushed to after the start of 2002.
Still an enjoyable way to mindlessly kill a couple of hours.

Guy's been dead how many years now? And the franchise is still pumping out marginal books with his name on them.

Still wish they'd make a movie out of "Without Remorse" and "Red Storm Rising"
Here's to the sunny slopes of long ago.

Still think The Hunt for Red October is the best of the movies - Alec Baldwin or not.

I'm currently watching Hunt for Red October. I never realized that the assistant sonarman on the Dallas was such a moron. Like, did he even go to school before taking the post?
