Not to one up you, but someone I know thought Tiny Dancer was Tony Danza.

Hold me closer Tony Danza,
Count the headlights on the highway.
Lay me down in sheets of linen,
You had a busy day today.

Fuck that's priceless.

I used to think that the Outkast song where they say "shake it like a Polaroid picture" was "shake it like a corduroy ninja".

 

[El Chimpo]

because its called sympathy

 

[Frank23]

Good for him.

Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again, but life goes on.

 

[Bob Gray]

Lol no one that replied has seen the movie I take it.

Nobody should be making decisions about any real person due to a movie "based" on their life.

 

[BearGrounds]

Can't understand why the posters here are giving him are wishing him well just because his life inspired a major film. BS if you ask me.

I'm indifferent. But he's served his time. No reason to call BS on people wishing him well if that's what they're choosing to do.

 

[HunterIII]

Good movie. Hope we see a pic of Jung and depp next.

 

[therealdope]

didn't the director of that movie die with coke in his system?

Yup. Coke was a factor in his death.

Oh sherdog, you condemn pimps in one thread then applaud drug traffickers in the next thread. Get your stuff together kids...

 

[The Taxman]

Wonder how long it will be until he is back in

 

[Thunderflash500]

Oh sherdog, you condemn pimps in one thread then applaud drug traffickers in the next thread. Get your stuff together kids...

Both should be applauded.

 

[BRF]

you mean he went to prison at 50? hell he got a half century of the good life.

I had no idea he was that old either. I figured he was mid to late 30s when seeing the movie and Depp portraying him.

 

[MyOwnSummer12]

Hope he has peace in his remaining years.

I doubt Carlos Lehder will ever get released.

That will never happen.

I don't know man, he looked pretty rough before that last arrest.

 

[Jon Stark]

I wonder if he has a large quanity of money buried or stashed some where....

Very poetic of you TZ. Nice post.

if he did, don't you think he would have used that money to move to Cali w/ his daughter instead of a one time coke deal?
