He fought them until hell froze over and then continued the fight out on the ice.

RIP, commie hater.

Big loss. People will go on about Blood Meridian but I remember reading The Road before the movie came out and thought that was a terrific read.

Thought Blood Meridian was not very good but No Country. The Road and the Border Trilogy are modern classics

I got really depressed after reading The Road and didn’t make the connection for several weeks. I can’t bring myself to watch the movie, there’s just no way it could do the novel justice.
