Respect to you Paul.

But yes, apparently he also had a brand of fig bars which were basically just Fig Newtons but they were called Fig Newmans instead. :rolleyes:

No...Cool Hand Luke, Butch Cassidy, and one of the classiest actors Hollywood has ever seen. He'll definitely be missed.

Yes, everyone loves it when I use the me tag to say I won't do something that I've already done by saying I wouldn't do it.

Or using the "refrain tag" for the same purpose.
However i suggest you to read what the "sallad dressing guy" did whit the "sallad dressing money".

Post by: Mars on September 27, 2008, 11:54:17 pm: Sadly I also immediately thought of salad dressing.

But those Fig Newmans were definitely better than Fig Newtons.

Hopefully Newman's Own will survive the death of Paul Newman, because they make a lot of good organic stuff. (good is there meaning "in spite of being", not "because")
