[QUOTE=Drew Hause;248719]... guns, shooting, and hunting were acceptable pastimes for Hollywood stars...


Were that only to be true TODAY! Another reason why I find myself watching TCM more and more...

Is it true that one of his Parkers is in the Clark Gable Museum in Cadiz? And which one?

I have never been in the Clark Gable museum. No Daryl, never ran into him in the woods, but you know us grouse hunters are a secretive bunch. Come to think of it , I ran into a handsome fellow who looked a lot like Clark years back, but he told me his name was Rich Anderson, or something similar to that.

Now that's funny.
