Bob, I thought you were on vacation! You shouldn't waste your valuable beach time responding to every mischievous post ;-) |

Semi-vacation Johnny. My wife is working at the lab here and I'm sculpting and have brought a limited amount of stock so I can fill orders while it lasts. We have to leave the garden to get internet so I get on-line every few days. The main advantage is the warm ocean breeze, the secluded beach, the quiet and my bottle of Hana Bay Rum. I can see the ocean from where I'm typing right now! Aloha! |

Fallout leader Which Orson Welles? The medium weight "The Shadow" Orson Welles, or the hefty "The Third Man" Orson Welles, or the fat "Touch of Evil" Orson Welles? A set of Errol Flynn minis would be cool. Captain Peter Blood, General Custer, Geoffrey Thorpe (The Sea Hawk) and Robin Hood. Maybe Wade Hatton (Dodge City) and a boxing figure of Gentleman Jim Corbett too. |

I'm afraid "Touch of Evil" Orson Welles would get my vote just because it has the best potential for looking distinctive. "The Third Man" Harry Lime is a great character though. You can get familiar with Harry through the old radio show "The Third Man". Welles played the character there as well. Bob pulpfigures.com |

On the radio show he's more of a likeable "confidence man". I like the show quite a bit and I suspect that it would have had a longer run if it had begun in the early 1940's rather than in 1951 when radio drama was rapidly giving way to television. Welles was a natural for radio. He had a very charismatic and engaging voice that I like listening to on all of his radio shows. |
