Your 24 Hour Host Since 1951

Kurt Russell
rating: 5 out of 5 cravats




Just look at that snapshot of Kurt joking around with a fork and a bottle of Bud Light and that jovial Stanley Cup. Or Elvis himself sweeping Patricia Clarkson off her feet (it's a movie still, who cares). It doesn't say a lot about the man's acting career that I'd happily be the third wheel at the hockey brunch, but how many movie stars seem so good-natured and sincere?

A libertarian who calls Rangeley, Maine, his hometown and sang with Warrant on 1991's "Voices That Care," Kurt did more than win me back with Death Proof. Kurt just stayed Kurt, and that's exactly who we want him to be. Here's to you, pal.

UPDATE: "Hanging out under the bridge." Incredible.
