Badass Birthday

On this date in 1939 in Tennessee, Dixie Carter was born.

She had a 35 year acting career, and received an Emmy nomination. She also had a vibrant theater career. But she's best known for playing Julia Sugarbaker in the sitcom Designing Women.

I know he lines were written for her, but her delivery of said lines was just...well badass. Have a look.

They're all amazing, but the bests ones are at 2:10, 4:10,

And then there's this one, it's my favorite. It's a long clip here, but the best part, the best line, perhaps my favorite from the entire show is at 3:35.

BWHAHAHAHA...I crack up every time she says those four adjectives!

Dixie Carter playing Julia Sugarbaker...totally Southern Belle Badass.

Night arrives with her purple legion (Part 12)......

Legion Lore

Ultra Boy

Jo Nah was born on the planet of Rimbor and got involved in the gangs who were all over the planet. He stole a space shuttle and ran from the Science Police. When in space fleeing from the authorities, he encountered a giant space whale, who swallowed the entire ship.

(yes...Jo Nah was swallows by a space whale.....well it WAS 1962....)

The ship got out of the whale, i dont recall if it blasted it way out or flew back out the mouth, but while inside, the energies therein gave Jo most of the powers of Superboy (flight, super strength, super speed, invulnerability, as well as Penetra-vision, which Superboy did not have, and which allowed him to, unlike Superboy, see through lead), except that he could only use one power at a time!

I can't tell you why but Ultra Boy was always my favorite Legionnaire. He was elected Legion leader and Deputy Leader more than once. He was thought to have been killed at one point, only to return alive. And unlike most of the team his costume remained basically the same from his joining until the beginning of the Magic Wars when Keith Giffen fucked around with ALL the uniforms and made his look stupid (along with most of the others).
