This just occurred to me while watching the The Last Waltz.
Robbie Robertson of The Band (AKA "The Hawks") and Richard Ramirez (AKA the "Night Stalker") look like they could be brothers.
I mean that as a compliment to both of them.
Sorry. Richard Ramirez..I mean, Robbie Robertson is hot.
*note: I took the "Waiting" post down because the hoax was too believabable to be funny. But if they say it's not so, well, they say. Also, I didn't want to indulge its "punk'd" tactics with any more publicity. Nevertheless, I'm still wondering if it's all actually damage control...
The other thing that strikes me, given the director, is how much Robertson and Rick Danko resemble Harvey Keitel and Robert DeNiro circa 'Mean Streets.'

I think Richardson also looks a bit like Warriors era James Remar.

Hey, what happened to your rap on the Guzman/McKittrick gossip? It's not like you dirtied your hands. Some other reason for the self-censorship?

Oh, nevermind. Now excuse me, I need a shower:

Oh man, you should leave the Guzman vs McKittrick, after all they got you too just like the rest of us....

Man,I wonder what all was said on the deleted topic after the last time I saw it!That's the second time in like the last 2 months,huh,Kim.I just hope no one was talking trash to you!Oh,well,I guess there are some good things and bad things to some controversy.It doesn't look like you're going to get too much more on the Richard Ramirez/Robbie Robertson topic now.I just wish I would have watched the video footage when it was still up.It was something I was going to come back and watch,but didn't get the chance.Does Robertson wear Cliff Huxtable-style sweaters too?

Thx for the explainer, Kim. Fwiw, I agree with your decision. The on-set hoax was fine; perpetuating it in print and online strikes me as too calculated and self-serving to merit genuine laughs.
On topic: I also see a young Benicio del Toro in that Ramirez pic. Sculpt Benecio some wicked Ramirez eyebrows and shoot him a little botox for those 38-yr-old forehead lines and you've got yourself a biopic: http://tinyurl.com/atwda
