Thanks for posting this. I just read it. Bruce Willis is one of the very, very few true patriots in Hollywood. It would be a great day to see him writing out a check for someone turning in one of those slime.

Rita appeared to be stunned at what all Bruce had to say. Even further stunned by the implication of if the Hollyweird types would go and see the troops they'd stop being the DUmmies that they are.

Seems like there is a puny little resort near the whistle stop of Fairfield...I think. Not much of a "resort" as I recall, but could be wrong.

Yippe Kai Yay, Mofo Libs!

"Welcome to the party, pal!"

"Die Hard" is one of my favorite Christmas movies. I especially like the scene where Powell is singing "Oh the weather outside is frightful, duh dum, duh dum, delightful". I laugh out loud every time!

[manwiththehands]

"Willis could start a 401(c)3 foundation to do the same thing, and I'd happily contribute."

Me, too. That's an outstanding idea. Maybe we could match the $1M and make it 2.

Best line out of that whole movie is by the good Seargant:

"Why donch' you wake up and smell what you shovelin'!"

[manwiththehands]

When Bruce Willis bought the resort he cancelled the "Annual Military Day" and basically shut it down to anyone but his closest friends

Does the word "liability" mean anything to you?

Nailed it. Even if this story is true the last thing Bruce Willis wants is to be sued by some drunk GI who breaks his leg getting off the ski lift.

[manwiththehands]

LOL! Getting medieval on Osama "... with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch" sounds like a great idea.

He probably bought it and reduced the staffing and service levels to a point where he probably can only host smaller groups.

Thanks for the ping, wish I had seen this interview!

From what I've been reading, he bought it in '96 and spent quite a bit to make it grow.

I think most skiiers are asses anyway. Sorry you lost your free day, but in my world I don't judge people by what they give me.

[MeekMom]

Way to go Bruce!

I didn't say he stopped giving discounts, but he also raised the price of tickets so he could offer that discount. I still refuse to believe that he is a great Hero just because he offers some money to bounty hunters. And I assure you, the military, at least in that area, would love to see him on the front lines in Iraq.

...when it came time for the Annual Military Day he said it was canceled til he decided otherwise.

And, I guess he's supposed to keep a staff to run the mountain even though it's only open to the Military one day a year? What does the staff do the rest of the time?

The property would have went from commercial use, with a staff and everything, to private use. How the hell is he as a private citizen supposed to staff his resort so that he can keep "Annual Military Day" open?

Give me a break! You're way off base on this one. Just because BW doesn't host a yearly party on his mountain for the military doesn't make BW a AH, or someone who doesn't support our military.

I'm not hosting any military parties at my place, either. Am I an AH?
