I watched those 90th anniversary ceremonies when I was in Doha. I knew those guys weren't going to last much longer but it's somewhat cool to think they lived 90 years after World War I ended.

The world's oldest man can never die unless he's the last man alive.

BTW... The only living US WW I vet (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Buckles) lives just up the road from me. I know people who know him.

What kind of role are you looking for in the narrative? Can you play a Lin McAdam/Rooster Cogburn type, or are you looking to be the villain?

Agreed.

I know someone who recently finished acting in an independent Western. The title is "Shoot First And Pray You Live."

That's pretty cool too.
