After watching the "A Fistful Of Reasons" episode yesterday for the first time in ages, the one question that I am sure has come across many BB fans has crossed my mind all over again: Where is Russell Schulman now? Of course, his all-too-brief claim to fame will always be his excellent performance as bully Buddy Hinton. However, I do recall seeing him in an episode of "Family Affair" as one of Jody's friends. I wonder what he thinks about that famous episode today.

It may just be a rumour, but I heard that he became a cult leader in California, and then he was killed in Vietnam.

Ha--probably like Neidermeyer from Animal House: "shot in Vietnam by his own troops" for being a jerk!:lol:

Seriously, I don't know. I had heard that Vietnam rumor before, but the best place to check the validity of something like that would be on one of those "urban legend" websites (do a Yahoo search--you'll get tons of results).

I may have read it in the Weekly World News, but I'm not certain.

Weekly World News?!!!

You mean the same "upstanding" newspaper that claims to have found a Bat-Boy living in a cave in Costa Rica?:lol:

Hmm. Maybe I didn't read it anywhere. I think it's just a personal assumption I tend to make about any famous or semi famous person who is no longer in the public eye.

He was supposed to be Peter's age and with the majority of US troops being pulled out by 1973, he would have been way too young to have served in vietnam.

Unless you're suggesting he went over there as a tourist or something!
