Russ is one of my favorite people. I've known him 20 years and he's never told me what to do. I used to have parties that rattled the dishes off his shelf, he never complained. We hang christmas lights each year, and one year he jumps 8 feet across two buildings - a 40+ foot drop - I say Russ aren't you scared?! He say's "I'm Russ Tamblyn", he's not bragging, he's not full of himself, he knows who he is. I almost thought about having a Russ Tamblyn Story Blog because every time I see him he as a new story. Tonight he was telling me about getting drunk with John Wayne and Wayne telling him about his life's love Marlina Detrich. That was a story in itself, but I don't know that it belongs in public domain. He gave me a wanted poster of him they used in a western, he's going back to some western convention to sell autographs in a few weeks. One of the pictures he had was of him driving a stage coach. He said he was flying and they hit a rock and it was quite a tumble. He's the only guy I know whose driven a stage coach. The picture above is Russ with my mom driving an 80K Cadilac that they gave Amber for taking a picture with the car.
