I kinda like the idea that a Bunch of Rich Kids wanted Eggs? lol! and the Old Yogi liked to say 

'Take it Easy' check out that link above [put it in Your Browser]

What's a Hindu?.. ha ha...This 'Comedy of Errors'...is done.

Burton Stephen Lancaster and Lloyd Bridges appeared in the 'Rainmaker' 1956 

The Rainmaker is a 1956 American romance film directed by Joseph Anthony and adapted by N. Richard Nash from his 1954 play The Rainmaker. 

The film tells the story of a middle-aged woman, suffering from unrequited love for the local town sheriff; however, she falls for a con man who comes to town with the promise that he can make it rain.

 It stars Burt Lancaster, Katharine Hepburn, Wendell Corey, Lloyd Bridges and Earl Holliman.

 Holliman won a Golden Globe Award for his performance.

The film was later remade in Hindi as Thodasa Roomani Ho Jaayen. [wikipedia]

I've never watched it?  but Hey! Lancaster played the Conman 'Starbuck?'..[See where I'm going here?]

and Bridges played 'NOAH CURRY'?..[ and I do like a good Curry]

Now everything I have been trying to explain about Characterizations being derived from already known

People/Experiences can perhaps include NFL Players/TEAMS... if You 'Google' NFL 'Nicknames' 

some interesting Dudes appear...'The Sheriff' [Peyton Manning]

'Smokey' [John Brown]...'Mr Cowboy' [Bob Lilly]  'Marty Ball'[Coach Marty Schottenheimer] etc etc

NFL is not unknown in Europe and is immensely popular- but We Europeans do not have the 

same knowledge as US Kids in regards to Nicknames/ Fan info...tho' that changes on an almost daily basis..

I find the most annoying thing about NFL games is the amount of Commercial breaks on TV...

Here's a little known Fact.. Smelling newly dug Earth in a Field or Garden actually releases 

Seratonin In the Brain [feel good factor]...and I'm thinking 'Face down in the Mud' said by 'Fatso' has something to do

with NFL Games? but I may be wrong?...maybe Jeff is recalling something from College days?

'Holy Ghost' 'Hail Mary' Plays etc ..but without dialogue and 'Against all Odds'- I'm clueless..

I'm looking out My window...it's raining hard outside.. and  I've got a lot more Movies to watch

catch ya next Year maybe? You know something? The Irish have a saying..

'Don't marry the Girl You Love- Marry the Girl who Loves You'..

addendum 22 feb 2024;

I am now 'Half  and Half' Myself...I now have Irish and British Citizenship.

Lloyd Bridges and His Movies are the basis for a lot of His Son's works

'Pride of the Bluegrass' [1954]about Racehorse's could perhaps be seen in 'SeaBiscuit'  [2003]made by Son JEFF [Mullet]  there are many more...

I did a 'Google'' for 'LEBOWSKI' and was amazed to see someone comparing JESUS CHRIST with

'DUDE?'..Man whoever it was got that totally wrong- Dud'ai is [Hebrew for 'Narcotic'] Cannabis.

But as  'FOOTNOTE' 

DUDE is BILLY BUDD...[but it would take way too long to explain here 'Bili' being  A Pagan 

'Sun God' from Wales etc.. Herman Melville the Hemp Smoker/ Writer of 'BILLY BUDD' would have been amused..]
