Personal Quote: People who can't write become critics.

He was in Dances with Wolves and Radio Flyer. Today he had a saddle on giving everyone a ride. I tell you what, a horse saddle looks darn funny on a bison--so tiny and lonely atop that 5 1/2 foot, hairy back. Tomorrow Food Network will be there covering the Cook-off championships.
