Who said this?

[Russ T Chambers]

This not really period, but if I put it where I thought it belonged, it would be a dead giveaway.  Move it as is seen fit.

Ok let's try something a little bit different.  Who asked to be remembered with the following phrase?

'Feo, Fuerte y Formal'

[Qball]

John Wayne

[Russ T Chambers]

John Wayne

100% correct!

"ugly, strong and has dignity"

[Silver Creek Slim]

Y'all are too quick fer me. 

It's fine right here, Russ T. It's part of our history.

[Capt. Hamp Cox]

"Before his death, Duke wanted a simple epitaph carved on his headstone, "Feo, Fuerte y Formal". Translated it means "He was Ugly, Strong, and had Dignity". Sadly, his wishes were never carried out."   http://users.orac.net.au/~mhumphry/wayne.html

Which old west lawman allegedly advised his deputies to "shoot first and yell:  'Throw up your hands!' afterwards."?

Reckon ole Slaughter had to do that cause the supply system couldn't come up with cuffs and leg irons?

Thanks guys.

When it comes to quotes, my two favorite quotees are Will and Sam (Clemens that is).    Cours' Sam was a local around here for a little while! 

[litl rooster]

  Not from that part of the River but enjoy Sam also...Following the Equator

[Capt. Hamp Cox]

"I take no sass but sasparilla."

[Delmonico]

My mind is still a bit foggy (more than usual) but was than not T.R.

[Capt. Hamp Cox]

It wasn't any of the following:

Teddy Roosevelt
Tex Ritter
Tom Ridge
Tim Russert



Seriously, he didn't have either of those initials, but he did have these two:  J.H.

P.S.  Good to see you back over here, Del.  Hope you're feeling better.

[Delmonico]

J.B.H.? also known as Wild Bill?

[Capt. Hamp Cox]

J.B.H.? also known as Wild Bill?

A lot closer this time, Del.  Your first and last initials are correct - just need more work on the middle one.

I'm so confident you'll get it right this time, here's the next one.

"You'all can go to hell. I am going to Texas." 

[Delmonico]

Davey Crockett
