Did you watch "The Six Million Dollar Man" with Lee Majors?

February 6, 2013

I did. And I had the toys when I was little too!

Bionic "Rex", the world's first "bionic man" is in the news and I thought that it's interesting news.

"It cost six million dollars to create bionic superhero Steve Austin.

The awards were for the sports staff's work in 2012. read more
