[QUOTE=The New and Improved Superman] And on a serious note, history buffs take note, I think this one is fascinating. It’s the execution by electric chair of [Leon Czolgosz](http://youtube.com/watch?v=UYSxfyIqrjs), the man who assassinated President McKinley. [/QUOTE] The link was incorrectly coded, which I’ve fixed in my quote. However, it’s a [re-enactment](http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/h?ammem/papr:@field(NUMBER+@band(lcmp001+m1b38298))). ---

[QUOTE=Beaucarnea] [Sadie the belly dancer.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YamDoDK71Ds) (I’m in love with her. Plus, she is from Sheboygan, which I find hilarious for some reason.) [/QUOTE] Could somebody pick my chin up off the floor, please. There is a belly dancing troupe in my town. I’ve seen a number of their shows, but this goes beyond anything I’ve seen. That is damn hot. I have a contribution. [The Little Buzzers](http://youtube.com/watch?v=uQd4-3hEqOE) great little animation piece. It starts out slow, but stay with it. There are more of them and you can find them by clicking on the channel. They are very cute and funny and I can’t believe they aren’t more popular. Check it out. Check them all out. Creative and unique. ---

[Scene from The Champ with Jon Voight](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5kZl9MMjE0) [Scene from Midnight Cowboy](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvEZmHXsjx8&feature=related) After recently rewatching Midnight Cowboy I’ve developed sort of a man-crush for the young Jon Voight. I mean, Christ, he really was one hell of a good actor back then, with amazing screen presence and a really expressive face. Why he never went on to true stardom is beyond me - I think he could have been the Paul Newman of the 70s/80s. He had the combination of leading-man looks and character-actor talent, but his career kind of went on a downward slide and he was in a lot of forgettable movies, eventually settling into his current position as “intimidating authority figure.” He’s not bad at playing that role, but he could have had a way better career. ---
