To: HANG THE EXPENSE

IIRC, Errol Flynn was an @sskickin’ SOB who threw more real punches than he ever did on the screen.

Of course, he ultimately beat himself to death by age 50.

“.....Errol Flynn was an @sskickin’ SOB .....)

A toast to him for of his films as a sailor (made my desire to become a sailor) has now made me a veteran. He had it all didn't he, but as Aristotle said to a young Alexander, " A long life in obscurity or a short life on Glory? Can you have both? Semper Fi USA.

Flynn drank and womanized himself into an early grave—but he lead his life his way—All who knew him remarked at his charm and wit and his roving eye and love of the bottle. He made some great films—perhaps the best Robin Hood on film.
