RIP - Diana Rigg

    Well crap.  Emma Peel died earlier this week.  At the ripe old age of 82.  RIP, Diana Rigg.

My Favorite Avenger

    That's my answer, too.  Mrs. Peel in a black leather bodysuit was my teenage dream girl.

Happy Birthday Patrick Macnee (John Steed)

    Happy Birthday to Patrick Macnee, who portrayed the incomparable John Steed (alongside the most sexy Diana Rigg) in the 1960's British adventure/spoof TV show The Avengers.

    Yeah, I know I'm showing my age by thinking of the two heroes shown above when someone starts talking about "The Avengers", and not the freakish superheroes from the more-modern movie with the same name.

    But dammit, you young whippersnappers, the 1960's show was better!   😎
