anudder reason to drink

From Ebert's Answer Man this week...

Q. I thought your question to Kevin Costner (whether he could envision casting Dennis Hopper as the Republican candidate and Kelsey Grammer as the Democrat in "Swing Vote" instead of the other way around) was interesting, especially since Costner said he could not imagine that casting. However, I remember seeing a Hopper interview years ago with Mike Wallace, in which Hopper confirmed that he is, in fact, a loyal Republican. When the interviewer asked how it was possible that a poster boy for the '60s counterculture grew into a man who voted twice for George W. Bush, Hopper replied, "I got sober, man."

A. Like, wow, man!

Brain damage?

I guess this makes all the investment firm shilling a little less peculiar.

Though consider his character Frank Booth in "Blue Velvet." Think Dick Cheney on every drug known to man.
