Action Lou

30 years ago today, hercules opened in theaters. lou ferrigno had the starring role as the mythological greek hero, who battles giant robots on the big screen. what prior role did ferrigno play on TV as bill bixby's alter ego? hint: look at the picture above. double punches for everyone who knows the answer!

Action Homer

able to achieve small feats of strength which include balancing himself on a normal sized avocado it's... ACTION HOMER! someone left this little blue action figure and i figured it was time to put him to work. who's your favorite action hero?

Happy Birthday Ray Bradbury!

today is ray bradbury's birthday! sadly we lost this prolific science fiction author last year, but he lives on in books like farenheit 451, the illustrated man, and dandelion wine... all of which should be read while drinking a hot beverage on a cloudy day.

Grandaddy

the name of that defunct band from sunday's trivia is: grandaddy. yep we miss 'em.

Name That Defunct Band

i first heard this band ten years ago on WOXY, then the band broke up, and then WOXY went off the air. does anyone remember this alan parsons-y band? was it:
a) weezer
b) grandaddy
c) coward
double punches go toward a free drink if you know the answer! oh, and the answer to last week's trivia question is bakersfield.

Repurposed Cool
