The kid from "H. R. Pufnstuf" was Jack Wild. And I agree, he doesn't look too good. Especially since his death this year. Drugs. Alcohol. But it was the cigarettes that did him in. Mouth cancer.

And I agree about the unrecognizability of Yvonne De Carlo. I don't remember where I saw her last, but I didn't recognize her, I think it was the weight she had put on, but when she spoke. . . that voice of hers. . .still magnificent.

The recent talk about "Rock 'n' Roll Nightmare" made me realize that when seeing what Jon Mikl Thor looks like these days, I would never have recognized him without being told it was him. He still seems like one hell of a guy, though.

The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin.

Ozzymandias speaks: Lisa Todd from Hee Haw and T.V. Mikels' the Doll Squad. If you don't believe me check out her web sight. http://www.lisatoddmarketing.com/index.htm She has one picture from Hee Haw, so you can go "Oh yeah, that girl."

Ozzymandias has spoken!!!

Everyone ages. If you don't age then your not old. Some say it's a state of mind. Others might refer to it physically. Hopefully we will all age, pass on, and enter Godhood.



What is that from?  I'm not so sure it is legit considering how he looks in T3.

No idea where it's from, but I'd guess it's legit. There was a photo of Arnold at the beach that ran in Parade magazine around the time he was running for governor. Saggy chest and a slightly bigger belly than this image, plus he was wearing a speedo (you can take the boy out of Europe, but you can't take Europe....). So there's other photos of him aging and not in the shape he was.

Makes sense though, with the downturn in his film career, and his outside business and political interests, he wouldn't look like he he did, why train to that level at his age without a good reason? Really who could? The shape he was in for the Conan image is remarkable, rare among people in general, and much closer to his bodybuilding days.
blah blah stuff blah blah obscure pop culture reference blah blah clever turn of phrase blah blah bad pun blah blah bad link blah blah zzzz.....

I've seen the Arnold picture before. It's legit. It was accompanied by an article where he talked about his fitness routine: when he's going to do a film, he spends at least three hours a day in the gym getting back good muscle tone (I think that was the time he claimed). In between films, he lessens the time in the gym and ends up looking more like that photo. I would guess he looks to be in even worse shape now since I'm sure his gubernatorial duties don't allow him so much workout time.
