RIP James Garner

[reholli]

Truly one of the greats!

A wonderful body of work, including the Support Your Local... movies (Sheriff, Gunfighter).

Jim Rockford taught me handbrake turns, a valuable life skill, best practised in rented cars.

I was in high school while Rockford Files was in its prime. We didn't call them "hand brake turns"...it was always "DO A ROCKFORD!" And yes, very valuable skill (so I'm told...never ever tried one myself )

James Garner. I always thought he would out live the rest of us. No matter the show if he was in it I searched to watch.
