Apparently, we've lost out on the project. The film producers have decided to make it in Ireland instead where they will save about $400,000 in labor costs. Over there, these days, there's no problem staging a fight, they do it every day for nothing. f V T + t LIVING -- The past couple of weeks we've .mentioned .mentioned Bob Noble and his retirement from Goodyear, The Editor received a card this week from San Francisco where brother Noble is apparently living it up.
