Monday, October 17, 2011  They Live  They Live last seen online
via YouTube  LAMBs in the Director's Chair is an ongoing event
in which LAMB bloggers discuss the work and career of a given
director. The current subject is John Carpenter. The complete
list of posts for this event will go up October 31 at the LAMB
site.  Wrestling! It's goofy, completely over-the-top, and
staged to a ridiculous degree - but gosh darn it, in the end,
it's all in the name of good clean fun, ain't it? Well, most of
the time, anyway. As a kid, I was completely hooked on it thanks
to a friend in grade school whose wrestling idols included dudes
like Superfly Jimmy Snuka and Superstar Billy Graham.  This, of
course, was back in the heyday of the World Wrestling
Federation. Everybody remembers Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, and
Macho Man Randy Savage (still can't believe he's dead, man...).
If you were a fan in those days, you may also remember Nikolai
Volkoff, the Iron Sheik, the Hart Foundation, the British
Bulldogs, the Killer Bees,
