He's a stranger to soap and water.
Because he's a bad cop.
To quote from the film, "because he always gets the Sugar end of the stick"!
"Sugar" rhymes with hit!
Dirty Harry is called because it was filmed in the winter.
Following on from an earlier thread, this is a "standard" quiz chestnut.

jno
LOL but no cigar

magnum - LOL
still no cigar
Are you talking about HMS Pandora, or do you mean the name of the ship(s) used in the making of the various films...?
.44 Magnum!
funny thing is, as I recall he does use the Magnum, and it doesn't blow anyone's head clean off. It was very disappointing.

Remember the charoot in the good the bad and the ugly ?

Ironically, The Pandora proved hopeless in its quest.
