cwoy2j Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 5 hours ago, Tromatagon said: My favorite Gary Hart stories are the ones that don't end with a sentence about the nice person involved dying a horrible death shortly thereafter The worst one was about the secretary in one of the booking offices he worked in. It went like, "she was a wonderful woman, hard worker. People liked her, took care of her handicapped mother. THen some guys broke into her house and killed them both." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwoy2j Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 And the Magic Dragon one was tough too. "If you ever saw Great Kabuki without me, you saw Magic Dragon. We were going to send him to Australia. The promoter heard that Dragon just got married so they paid for her ticket as well for a honeymoon gift. Then the plane crashed and they both died."

I re-read that last night because I forgot the story. The fact that they'd go in and just stare at him why he slept is kinda weird. I think there were drugs involved. Also, Barnett did send both Outlaws back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 The best Outlaws-in-Australia story was the one about the bar with a shark tank where (I think) Murdoch jumped in and literally swam with the sharks. Just because I thought it over a bit and could COMPLETELY buy Dick doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyld Samurai Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 The mental image of Bunkhouse Buck on a bad acid trip in the Australian Outback is enough to make me want to see it made into a movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyld Samurai Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I don't know if it's a good book or not yet - but "Lion's Pride" by Chris Charlton is available as a free reading if you have Kindle Unlimited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notoriusvig Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I'm sure this has been discussed but how is Lex Luger's book? I've been enjoying his 96-97 stuff and the preview on the Kindle sounded decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pretty quick read that I'd recommend if you can get a used or cheap copy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully finding all the typos, I swear to god I did my best. I really am grateful to anyone who bought it. I am very proud of it and think we did something unique.

cwoy2j Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I recently got both of JTG's books. Quick reads and badly in need of some editing but lots of interesting stories. Shad comes across like one of those guys who is a good friend but his dumbassery and general self-unawareness always gets others in trouble.

A Guy Named Tracy Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 I could be mistaken, but I thought that the PDF version of the Gary Hart book was a draft and not the final version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here I am, Good Samaritan, just giving away that book to someone on this board! (No regrets, though. It felt wrong to hog that book, seeing as how rare it is. More people need to read it.) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
