1. As I said over at Mike’s…that pic IS pretty funny! But…that said… here’s a lil bit of dialog from “The B-58″…er…The Hustler:

   Fast Eddie: You know, I got a hunch, fat man. I got a hunch it’s me from here on in. One ball, corner pocket. I mean, that ever happen to you? You know, all of a sudden you feel like you can’t miss? ‘Cause I dreamed about this game, fat man. I dreamed about this game every night on the road. Five ball. You know, this is my table, man. I own it.

   

2. Hmm, you do realize the ultimate outcome of that match between Eddie and Fats… 😎

   …wasn’t an option. But, not a bad choice, even if he DID play a famous Grunt. 😉

   You didn’t ask, but I wouldn’t mind being Jimmy Stewart. Or someone like him. 😎

8. Oh, but it is:

   The Hustler (1961)
   Cast (in credits order)
   Paul Newman … Eddie Felson
   Jackie Gleason … Minnesota Fats
   Piper Laurie … Sarah Packard
   George C. Scott … Bert Gordon
   Quotes:
   Bert Gordon: I don’t think there’s a pool player alive shoots better pool than I saw you shoot the other night at Ames. You got talent.
   Fast Eddie: So I got talent. So what beat me?
   Bert Gordon: Character.
