#2 Jack's 'Tough Guy' persona was projected with great skill and convincing realism. That glance and grimace along with that 'scrappy' voice, was such, could make a man stutter when talking to him. Other than perhaps Mr. T (in his prime) I can't think of anyone else that could do that!

Are you sure that was Palance? I seem to recall someone else in the part (though I can't recall the name just right off)

Regardless, ole' Jack was a class act all the way through.

I crap bigger than him

I thought the word was "better"...
