Last year I joked that August 25th is the manliest day of the year as Gene Simmons turns 70 while Sean Connery turns 89 today. I suppose feminist out there would refer to this day as "National Toxic Masculinity Day" given they probably hate them but let's face it. If Simmons and Connery represent Toxic Masculinity then men should not want to be clean.

Happy 70th Birthday to Gene Simmons.

Every Time R2-D2 Saves the Day

Today would've been the 85th birthday of actor Kenny Baker who played everyone's favorite droid R2-D2 for the first six Star Wars films and was a consultant for R2 in The Force Awakens. He passed away in 2016 at the age of 81 due to illness.

1994 was a big year for the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise as it saw the release of three games. The first being the long awaited Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and the second was Sonic and Knuckles which was an innovative game that used locked on technology allowing the player as Knuckles in Sonic 2 while transforming two games into one with Sonic 3. However, a third game also came out that same year that largely flew under the radar likely due to it being only released on the Sega Game Gear and that game was Sonic The Hedgehog: Triple Trouble. With the 25 Anniversary coming in November, we'll take a look at a solid Sonic outing that got overlooked possibly due to a combination of the system is was released on and that fact the franchise was churning out many classics at the time.

Today is the 50th Anniversary of Woodstock.
