Re: A Monkey. With A Gun.

The only time I met Charlton Heston, Trey, he was sitting in the living room of a Highland Park manse maybe seven years ago, making small talk for some charity event. In front of him was a coffee table with a number of lit candles around a spectacular display of fresh flowers. Suddenly one of the candles flared up, and the flower arrangement caught on fire. Just as fast some quick-thinking guy bolted across the room, grabbed the blazing bouquet and tossed it into the fireplace. Then somebody made a joke about “Moses and the burning bush” and the room, Heston included, cracked up.

    Who pried the gun from Heston’s cold, dead hand?

    Sure it wasn’t a “Bouquet Bong?”
