The fall guy I love that theme

"because I'm the unknown stuntman that makes eastwood look so fine". Even the dig at farrah very clever.

How long did that show last?

Here's the exact moment where I learned to wear my sunglasses this way when you don't need them right now, but will again soon. Still do to this day.

Perhaps my most permeating bit of meanness in Jr. High. There was a new guy who was kind of goofy looking, it bugged the heck out of me until I figured out he looked remarkably like Gary Gnu. I made the observation once and it spread like wildfire. His name was Steve [Mmrrphhh], but by the time we graduated HS he'd answered to Gary for years.

ohhhhhhhhhh no, not THAT show! One of my babysitters when I was young absolutly loved that show and insisted on watching it everytime she was there. What a horrible show.

We had a dude that looked like Beaker from the muppet show. I didn't mess with him though.

Holy shit, I just realized that's the tune on George Costanza's answering machine.

For some reason, when I was in the UK, they'd show reruns of Fall Guy non stop on BBC on Saturday afternoons. I remember loving that show as a kid, but it's ridiculously stupid now.

*edit*
shit, guess not. I would have sworn the clip of him flying a rainbow colored glider was in the credits

I'm sure google has already been bombarded by 'rainbow hang glider' so I'm not even going to try but Mr. Fax, I see your Ant Suicide Virus and see you the "water bear" aka Tardigrade.

Some interesting facts about the little guy:

Tardigrades have been known to withstand the following extremes while in this state:

• Temperature — tardigrades can survive being heated for a few minutes to 151 °C, or being chilled for days at –200 °C, or for a few minutes at –272 °C. (absolute zero is −273.15 °C).<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference">[11]</sup>
• Pressure — they can withstand the extremely low pressure of a vacuum and also very high pressures, more than 1200 times atmospheric pressure. It has recently been demonstrated that tardigrades can survive the vacuum of open space and solar radiation combined for at least 10 days.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference">[12]</sup> Recent research has notched up another feat of endurance: they can withstand 6,000 atmospheres, which is nearly six times the pressure of water in the deepest ocean trench. <sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference">[13]</sup>
• Dehydration — tardigrades have been shown to survive nearly one decade in a dry state.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference">[14]</sup> Another researcher reported that a tardigrade survived over a period of 120 years in a dehydrated state, but soon died after 2 to 3 minutes of more customary exposure.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference">[15]</sup> Subsequent research has cast doubt on its accuracy since only small movements in the water bear's leg were detected.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference">[16]</sup>
• Radiation — as shown by Raul M. May from the University of Paris, tardigrades can withstand 5,700 grays or 570,000 rads of x-ray radiation. (Ten to twenty grays or 1,000–2,000 rads could be fatal to a human). The only explanation thus far for this ability is that their lowered hydration state provides fewer reactants for the ionizing radiation.

Quiet an amazing creature. Literally almost indisructable except for when his environment is quickly changed. I've always admired the little guy.

Dang. They've been torturing the dickens out of those little fellers.

FAX

I thought he provided a good antithesis to the kamikaze ant. :D

Well, it does indeed, Mr. Otter. I just think that these scientist guys are kind of creepy.

Scientist Wife: "So, how was your day, honey?"

Scientist: "Not good. I tried to kill a water bear and it didn't work. I tried freezing it, hitting it with radioactive gamma rays, and setting it on fire. The damned thing's still breathing."

Scientist Wife: "Oh honey ... I'm so sorry."

Scientist: "It's okay. Tomorrow, I'm going to hit one with a sledge hammer and see if that works."

FAX

ROFL

You have no argument from me there Fax.

Also, how the hell do they generate that much radiation?
