isn't it strange that you don't see or hear or think about someone for years and years (I thought he was long gone) but as soon as someone mentions his name you can hear his voice. He had a wonderful deep voice.

OK, let's get the usual DL bullshit out of the way?

He was gay, right? I mean he must have at least been bi!

Verificata of sizemeat?

Was he cut or uncut?

Who's had him? There must be at least one eldergay here who did Clint at a Hollywood pool party or in between takes when making Cheyenne episodes.

Please continue, now that the distractions are posted.

Physically, Clint was the ultimate model of my fantasy man. Powerful, handsome and rugged yet with just the right amount of sweetness, sensitivity and kindness. Even without the body I would still be enamored with his face. The body made him a god. I always wondered if he didn't have a touch of Native in him.

"Henry [Willson]'s biggest success in the TV oaters was also the biggest physically. The size of Clint Walker's lats, in fact, fitured into his 1959 contract dispute when Warners had him working twelve-hour days on Cheyenne, the first hour-long TV Western. 'I need my workouts,' demanded Walker, who ultimately secured a two-hour morning time slot at the studio gym."

He has/had a website and there was an email address one could use to email him. If I recall correctly his birthday was in May or June so I sent him an email wishing him a happy birthday several weeks beforehand. Never got a reply; I still think he would have been heaven in bed back when he was a "perfect 10". Just to be held by him would have been great, almost like a relief because a void was filled. He didn't age well though, looked like a fat old crone in his later years. His fabulous ass back in the day made me wish I could have spanked and fucked him.

Aldo Ray was a "protégé" of George Cukor and a few others.

I've read that in his later years, Walker became a conservative Republican and a homophope, perhaps remembering what he had to do to start his career. Don't know whether that's true.

Regardless, I'm an eldergay and fapped endlessly to all those beefcake Warner Bros. westerns, Cheyenne especially.

Here's my favorite photo of Walker. Of course it's shopped; everything from the belt down is pasted in from a Colt Studio photo. But it's very well done.

I remember a late 70s MOW with Jaclyn Smith called The Users, based on a novel, I think, by Dominic Dunn, about people who use each other in Hollywood.

Jaclyn's character hooks up with older guy Tony Curtis and Tony's daughter, Michelle Phillips, says that they have to be careful about 'daddy going over the deep end' and that entailed him picking up a GUY to sleep with.

Very risque for the 70s.
