    Default John Dillinger's derringer and gun that killed him to be auctioned

    Wow, talk about a couple of pieces of firearms history!

    http://money.cnn.com/2009/07/07/news...ion=2009070711

    Don't know about you but as a kid I was a gangster fanatic, read everything I could on Dillinger, Bonnie and Clyde, Babyface Nelson and the Barker Gang.

    Who wouldn't want to own one of these?

    I'd love to own those guns, but Obama refused my request for a bailout.


    By the way I still love watching the specials about the old gangsters

    I would love to own those guns. It would kill me to own them and not shoot them... But if I had the money I would buy one/both.
    When you are called a racist, it just means you won an argument with an Obama supporter.

    Pretty cool, and what a good movie. I thought that Johnny Depp's performance was fantastic.

    Heh, when isn't his performance fantastic? The guy can do just about anything acting wise and do it well. He blew me away in Sweeney Todd!

    It was good to see a movie filled with good character actors.

    I'd have to say Charlie and the Chocolate Factory...

    Blow was probably my favorite.

    I wasn't impressed. It wasn't nearly as suspenseful as I expected from Michael Mann. I thought Depp was far too cheeky, I was waiting for him to wink at the camera.

    I thought the movie was over about 4 times, the real ending was pretty weak. The climax was the 30 second car-chase on the dark road, where it seemed like Depp was in the car with the other guys, but he really wasn't.

    Overall, I was pretty disappointed, I was hoping Mann would be able to come up with something closer to Heat with Pacino and Deniro, but it was nowhere near that good.
