Ernest Magnets
Description: Ernest Miller Hemingway was an American journalist, novelist, short-story writer, and sportsman. His economical and understated style—which he termed the iceberg theory—had a strong influence on 20th-century fiction, while his adventurous lifestyle and his public image brought him admiration from later generations.
Description: 'There Is No Friend As Loyal As A Book' The Ernest Hemingway design commemorates the late American novelist, short-story writer, journalist, and sportsman. Over the course of his career, Hemingway wrote ten novels, including A Farewell To Arms, For Whom The Bell Tolls and The Old Man and The Sea. He was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1952 and the Nobel Prize in 1954. Plagued by ill health, a passion for drinking and numerous accidents that left him in serious pain, Hemingway shot himself in 1961 at the age of 61.
Description: Ernest P. Worrell (Jim Varney) is working as a garbage collector in a small Missouri town. Despite the warnings of superstitious local Old Lady Hackmore (Eartha Kitt), he accidentally unleashes devious troll Trantor (Jonas Moscartolo), a slimy creature confined under a tree for 200 years. Trantor changes some kids into wooden dolls and turns Ernest's dog, Rimshot, into a log. Ernest then teams up with Old Lady Hackmore to get rid of the beast and bring the victims back to life.
