Who's got the best show on TV?! The man in the Hat R. Lee Ermey!, 23 July 2003
Author: Noah Levine (noahl@rocketmail.com) from Buffalo, NY



Having known this man from FULL METAL JACKET I was eager to watch him on THC. Within minutes of watching I found a new show I enjoy. I get great kicks out of him demonstrating old machine guns, talking about choppers, joking around, telling us to STAY PUT during commercials, and more. He adds a flavor as NO ONE CAN.

For those of you who enjoy martial arts movies with art...check out IRON & SILK. In the movie the person who portrays China's Master Qingfu Pan is NONE OTHER than himself, as he felt no one could better portray him. He is right.

The live show from the gulf with MAIL CALL was excellent. I have written in to ask about the GLOCK handgun, so if you see it on tv...you'll know who asked.
