whoa!  Gene Autry!  Hubba.  What a body!

..and I always pictured WAYNE as a Jude Law type...



there are some pics over at davecullen.com which is a good Wayne as well.



“I told you. Boy’s a slut. Makes him very attentive to the customers,
cause he’s always goin for that extra tip that means a little action after the bar closes.”


And Wayne is very much NOT out of the picture !

I left Friday when there were around 5 or 6 posts under this thread.  Checking in this morning, there are already over 140 posts. Things like red tank top, Ellery in uniform, blue boots, Ellery’s house, blue El Camino, casting of various roles (Beagle, Dupree, Wayne, etc) and much more have all been covered.

You guys are riots. I see a thread of “You know you are obsessed with Ennis and Ellery when….” coming.  David or Leslie, maybe you should just jump right into it. ;D

And a big welcome to all the people come to BetterMost.  As we always say here, sit a spell and chat a little, you want some coffee, piece of cherry cake?

Ha ha, when you left Friday, Jenny, this thread didn't exist. We were talking about E&E on the 1000+ posts thread and I decided it was a topic that warranted its own discussion. Obviously I was right.

We are thrilled to have Louise here, as well as many readers and new Bettermost members.
