    One of my favorite actors. I used to love the Rockford Files when I was a kid.

    Agreed. Loved that theme. Every episode he'd get the absolute shit kicked out of him and the next time you'd see him he just had a little trickle of blood at one corner of his mouth. Remember how he was living in a trailer park... in Malibu? Good times.

    My decks were built by a guy who remodeled Garner's kitchen.

    I think his finest acting was in the movie Murphy's Romance.

    My absolute favorite actor.

    My nominee for his best line:

    I love that movie. His reaction the first time he tries to smoke the smokeless cigarette is fantastic.

    Of course, the book is much better.
