I'm originally from the Northwest, where buttermilk isn't a common l beverage, and as I child i was out having breakfast with my fam at a restaurant and ordered myself a glass having never heard of it before. It was an experience I remember quite well and it was an instance where I something important, albeit the hard way, about combining trust and curiosity. It looked like milk, so when I got it I took a gulp and discovered that buttermilk had a highly offensive flavor that was totally unlike butter or milk, and that whoever named it had maliciously done so to satisfy the sadistic sense of humor he had developed after a lifetime of worshipping the devil. Over the years I've seen it at a few stores next to the milk in the dairy case looking benign and pretending to be like the milk that it was sitting by. In cartons just like the milk, and with a stamped expiration date, which I assume is just to be ironic and add a little more black humor since it's obvious that buttermilk doesn't spend any time refrigerated prior to hitting the store shelf. I see no other explanation since it's clearly beyond expiration before having a predicted shelf life stamped on the carton. To those folks (that apparently possess stomachs that can digest asphalt) who actually like drinking it, or to the guy that shockingly said he loves it, if you're being honest and not fucking with me, or perhaps failing to mention that you can't taste anything because you lost your tongue after being dared to lick a frozen flag pole when you were a kid, then I solemnly bow my head in humble respect of your supernatural ability.

Calls bad behavior quote has always been my favorite.

I honestly can't pick a favorite quote. This is one of my favorite movies of all time.

I too, loved the book. My husband and I watched the very first TV series of Lonesome Dove. His Uncle gave me the book later. It was easier to understand the show after reading the book. McMurtry was a great author. The actors were perfect and made the book come alive. I don't have a quote, but my favorite part of the movie was when his old girlfriend comes outside to investigate and is awe struck because Gus is there , and they kiss. She is just like the girl he first met. I also, loved how he brought Lori back to herself, after he rescued her from Blue Duck. He was so kind and gentle hearted.

"Lori Darlin'.'' Thanx for the history lesson

'I doubt it matters where you die, but it matters where you live. As always brilliant.

Excellent account of Goodnight-Loving. I lived in Canyon growing up and the Panhandle-Plains Museum was right down the street and I went there weekly. In Boy Scouts we camped in Palo Duro often. You tell an astonishing story with connection and accuracy!

“Well…it’s just never agreed with me.”

The miniseries was also a masterpiece because of the great Basil Poledouris' musical score.

" Cause when I'm on a horse, i wanna be on a horse." When Call explained why he put up with the horse he called Hellbitch to Gus. Now it's been 30 plus yrs since I've read the book and watched Lonesome Dove, so that's close to what I recall. Down thru the years I've owned a few crazy horses and when someone puts the question to me, that's how I answer them!

Absolutely sweet timing. Been rewatching the series over the last week... First time in 15 years.

Larry McMurtry had a great ability to detail, his detailed novels is what set him apart from other authors. Lonesome Dove, Streets of Loredo, Commanche Moon, Dead Mans Walk and other brilliant books, kept me awake till the wee hours in the morning. The Last Picture Show was a great more modern portrayal of a dying town and culture. His contribution to American literature is Bar None.

The greatest novel , the best Western series, the two best peformances, or better yet, characterians of tough, western era men, ever!

"We don't rent pigs." It is a quote that says a lot about a man.

More great stuff, Josh. I'd seen Lonesome Dove when it first came out, and was surprised later to learn about Goodnight and Loving. Was even more surprised when, after learning a bit about Billy the Kid, I found the Fort Sumner connection. It would likely be the now-famous little cemetery where Oliver Loving was temporarily interred, about the time the Kid was just a kid in Indiana. Perhaps Loving was near where the 20+ soldiers were resting, until themselves being relocated to Santa Fe about 1906. Sometimes the real stories are as good or better than the fiction novelists can create.
