Yellowstone
I’ve always liked Kevin Costner.
He was great in ‘Tin Cup’.
He also holds the distinction of being in the first movie we ever ordered straight to our television. It was ‘Water World’ which I also liked even though everyone else hated it.
I may have liked it because I couldn’t believe we could just order up a movie and it would play right on the television.
Costner was also good as John Dutton - the Dad on Yellowstone - even though everyone in the show is kind of loathsome.
A show about cowboys on the huge ranch chasing money and killing one another.
And they killed off Costner because he didn’t sign a new contract.
Yet, here we are - we watched the first half of season five again and caught the first episode.
It’s a crazy story and one that makes us say:
“She’s an asshole,” about three times every episode.
What gets me about it is that I’ve seen pickups - here in Buffalo - adorned with the Yellowstone insignia and ‘Dutton Ranch’.
That’s weird to me!
Do the drivers of such vehicles truly believe that they are cowboys who work the ranch alongside Rip and Beth?
Why do people put such things on their own vehicles?
I missed the boat on that one, I guess.
There are cars with bumper stickers that show their love of their sports teams, their children, their dogs and their favorite politicians.
Kinda’ weird.
Speaking of which, right around the corner from our house there’s a huge blow up doll of a politician.
It’s still in the center of this guy’s lawn…
…even though the election is over.
What does one do with a 30’ blow up doll of politician?
Where will he hide it once the Democracy collapses?
Anyway, I’ll miss Kevin Costner.
