Most people know of his acting career, but not so many know of his life-long love and dedication to music. These days, Ronny spends about half of his time acting and the other half as a singer/songwriter performing at folk festivals, concert venues and small intimate theatres. I have included the links to Ronny's pages that are about the things he loves to do... I have spent the past two days listening to his music and with a heartfelt electrified accoustic sound, accompanied with a solid vocal support, Ronny kept me both tapping my toes, laughing aloud and singing along to some great stories and songs. Wonderfully entertaining! Enjoy Ronny's music with me by visiting his site at:

Hey Honey, you left out some of his more well known movies on the list. Robocop, Beverly Hills Cop, Deliverance

In fact, last night, after playing against him, I was lying in bed thinking of a game. Its like Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon except you can do it with Ronny Cox and you have to circle back around to Ronny Cox, never using the same movie twice. I'll have to mention this to him. He'd get a laugh out of it.

I think the best one I came up with is this one so far.

Ronny Cox
Deliverance
Jon Voight
Anaconda
Jennifer Lopez
Gigli
Ben Affleck
Forces of Nature
Sandra Bullock
Demolition Man
Wesley Snipes
Murder at 1600
Ronny Cox


You know, its even more fun if you connect one HP celebrity to another. Try Tim Busfield to James Woods. Its a quick hop skip and jump.

Anyways, I hope Ronny stops by more often. He was great fun to play against, and quite a challenge.

I have included those movies that you mentioned Raging. Thanks! :happy: While there, I saw a great hint in your game re: the connection for Ronnie to James.

Great game idea! Why don't you try a game thread, I know some of the HP staffers love twisting there minds around those things. :waytogo:
