For those unfamiliar, he was the author of Legends of the Fall, though he has many works that exceed it IMO.

After dinner the Texan invited Cochran to accompany him to a whorehouse but he declined saying he'd feed, walk and water the horse. 'Strikes me you had a big day and some poontang might ease your mind.' 'Nope. Killed a man I hated today and I don't want to mix my pleasures. I want to lay in bed and think how good it felt.' The Texan nodded and lit a cigar. He was no man's fool

Sad stuff, as the linked article stated, though compared to Hemingway, he was more closely akin to a character in a Hemingway novel.
He was a man's man that liked to hunt, fish, cook, eat, drink and screw. He was a pretty fair writer too.

Because Hemingway was a bi/homosexual?

Because he was an unapologetic man that could write well.

I am confused...isn't that what Harrison is/was? Why is Harrison closer to a Hemingway character than Hemingway himself?
And I'm a Hemingway fan. His personal life is absolutely fascinating to me as well.

I always thought the Muppets were overrated.

Sorry to hear about his death, but I feel Chris Blair is a vast improvement.
