Somehow I like this better on YouTube. The story is that both were smokers who had quit, this short scene got them started again. Both eventually quit again. I read in the NY Times Op-ed page today that they’re considering creating a non-addictive cigarette. A lot of kids start smoking young and keep the habit because of the addictive quality of cigarettes. The idea is that all new smokers would have to opt for the non-addictive version. That would make it easier for them to quit. Kind of strange concept, I wonder if it could work. Tom and Iggy probably would have opted for them in this scene.

Comments closedAnd now on our Variety Show, a very special mashup. Robert Fripp meets Francis Ford Coppola, King Crimson meets Apocalypse Now, and the smell of napalm in the morning. As I’m sure you remember, it’s the smell of victory. I love the moment when a shell hits a few yards from Robert Duvall, and he doesn’t flinch or lose his train of thought.
