Yesterday as Jackson and I were heading out to lunch we thought we saw Lee Majors walk right past us. He was dressed (oddly enough) in a track suit and had a towel around his neck. He looked as though he was coming from working out. And also, I might add, looked a little older than I remember him. Jackson said we should have chased him down the street him making the bionic sound effect noise, but as we weren’t sure it was him and didn’t want to give an innocent pedestrian a stroke we decided against it.
We should have done it. This morning on CKNW I heard that it was him after all as he’s in town shooting sceens for a guest appearance in Jake 2.0, a show about a guy turned superhero / secret agent after he is shot and brought back to life with nanotechnology that gives him superhuman strength and amazing powers. Sound sort of familiar? Very Steve Austin if you ask me. My guess is that the Bionic Man has been resurrected for this show. It could be good to see him back in action. I’m not sure he’s done anything since the Fall Guy.
Jackson said a friend of his does transportation co-ordination on Jake 2.0 and he may be able to swing an autograph for me. Coolio!
I loved the Six Million Dollar Man and even had the toys. Listen to the theme right here (199kb .AU file) whilst reading below:
We have the capability to make the world’s first Bionic man.
Steve Austin will be that man. Better than he was before.
Better . . . stronger . . . faster.
