It took me that long to recover (and my driveway still isn't finished) from a 72 hour shift from the snowstorm...
I'm planning on a podcast tonight and I have a neat blog planned for later in the week as we return to the forgotten superstars universe!
Two quick notes as well
Today is the 49th anniversary of the fire inside Apollo 1 during a test procedure.
It was the first tragedy in the American space program and it shouldn't be forgotten as it cost the lives of Gus Grissom (second American in space),Ed White (first American to walk in space) and Roger Chaffee.
The sacrifices that are made in exploration of space and the knowledge gained from such should always be remembered..
The wrestling world lost Archie "the Mongolian Stomper"Gouldie at the age of 79 after not waking up from surgery on a broken hip.
The Stomper was the top headliner for years in Calgary's Stampede territory and the Tennessee/Georgia areas as a heel.
The Stomper would never speak in the United States as he would use a manager to play the monster heel,but would give pretty strong interviews in Stampede.
Why? Well,Gouldie was from Calgary and knew that putting on a facade of being unable to speak would expose the business in a time that it didn't want to be exposed.....
