My birthday song, my happy world (Part 288).....

 Badass Birthday

On this date in 1955 in Maryland, Richard Schiff was born. 


His career started over 40 years ago.  He's been in movies as varied as Se7en, The Lose World Jurassic Park, Ray, and Black Panther Wakanda Forever and tv shows as varied as Roswell, Criminal Minds, The Good Doctor, and Murder In The First, as well as several performances on stage. 

However, I'm putting here for his badass performance as Toby Zeigler in The West Wing for 7 years.   Badass performance on a badass tv show.

Night arrives with her purple legion (Part 13)....

 Legion Lore

Star Boy


Thom Kallor was born on and satellite orbiting the planet Xanthu.  As the 13th admitted Legionnaire, he was sometimes known as the "Unluckiest Legionnaire."    He was born with the mutant ability to pull mass from the stars and imbue this mass into other people or things, thus increasing their weight and making them very heavy. 

As a teenager, however, he flew his space ship accidentally through the tail of a comet, which was his first unlucky event.   After recovering from that event, however, he found he had powers resembling those of Superboy.  So he anxiously went to Earth, tried out for, and joined the Legion. 

After a short while though, his second unlucky event happened: the Superboy-like powers faded, leaving with just the mass increasing powers.  He was allowed to stay in the Legion.   And then one of the few good things happened to him: he started dating fellow Legionnaire Dream Girl.  

After some more, another unlucky event happened: he killed Dream Girl's ex-boyfriend in self-defense.  Killing is absolutely against Legion rules, and it was shown in a Legion trial, that he could have handled the situation without killing.  So he was kicked out of the Legion. 

Dream Girl left the Legion because he precognitive powers weren't working properly, and together, she and Star Boy joined the Legion of Substitute Heroes for a bit to attempt to hone their powers and improve them and make them better heroes.  And later still, they rejoined the Legion proper. 

In later years, Star Boy was sent to the 20th Century on some mission.  The trip drove him for all purposes insane.   But he took up with the modern Justice Society of America as Star Man (which coincidentally had a former member named Star Man).  He worked with the team for a while before it was realized who he was and he was returned to the future, and sanity.

My birthday song, my happy world (Part 286)....

 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).
