    The ending was pretty predictable, even for a spaghetti(code) western. You gotta learn how to tell a story - you know, add some sauce, or your audience will pasta you by without so much as a garnish of attention.

      Are you saying you are John Simmons's gay lover, or that you were John Gaylord Simmons? :laugh:

        sequel The stranger is only wounded, and is rushed to the local bar for an emergency operation when, miraculously, Dr. McCoy, through a freak time warp during transportation, materializes briefly. I'm a doctor, dammit, not an alcoholic! Bones saves the stranger's life, who returns to the town under the pseudonym "goldenrod", where he is mistaken as the gay lover of the outlaw, but at this point, nobody cares because, OMG, who is that incredible sexy creature that we only get a glimpse of through the stage coach's eight windows?

          Lately the outlaw (flash) has been pretty drunk and either passing out or going into manic mode where he randomly uses up everyone's time.

              There was a small town, the sheriff (HTML) was a lazy guy, didn't care about people (Developers) of the town. An outlaw (Flash) almost ruled the town with the support of lazy sheriff. suddenly there is stranger (Silverlight) arrived in the town, and he started getting attention from the people. the outlaw didn't like that and so.... (now action) both are standing 20 feet distance, people already started betting on who is gonna draw faster, and there was a silence of 15 min... the stranger draws the gun first... but before he shoots the outlaw, the lazy sheriff killed both of them in a second...bang... bang... and the people of the town are like, what the hell happened :wtf: ... and the audience (reporters/bloggers) is like, now what ? (end credits)

              Knee-jerk prejudicial behaviour aside, would it matter worth a toss if CP were presented in HTML & Javascript, HTML5, Silverlight, or Flash?  The jokes wouldn't get any better, no matter which were used to display them

                Once Upon a Time in the West. Ranks near the top in westerns. Especially the start.

                      Yeah, I should have put the actors name in the end credit... also it was missing the background score of harmonica from 'Ennio Morricone%^&^%^.... (cant spell the name) :)
