Arthur Kane is one of my favorites too.  The documentary New York Doll is really wonderful. 

I also love Billy Barty, a dwarf who was a great actor, and did a lot to promote normalcy in dwarfism (and wasn't afraid of the word "midget").  And he was in one of my favorite films, Foul Play.  He converted for the love of a woman, and never looked back.  A friend of mine was a sometimes chauffeur for Hollywood types, and absolutely loved Billy.

In a world where so many famous Mormons, like Tal Bachman, apostasize, it is nice to see someone like Arthur Kane make it.  The documentary, New York Doll, was truly uplifting for this reason.

My favorite line in the article:

In fact, he’s so tough, people don’t tell those clever Chuck Norris-style jokes about Frank Phillips. They wouldn’t be funny; they’d be true.

Okay, I don't know any of these names mentioned above.

These should be familiar to most.

Indeed.  Missionaries for our church can come from really, really weird places.  From the closing credits of that wonderful show:

I don't think either of these guys is LDS.

That version gives me chills. Seen it many times.

@NeuroTypical can't  this version bring you back to Carthage on June 27th, 1844? Something about his voice I find incredibly spiritual.

If you had a poster secretly taped to the back of your bedroom door of Tom Selleck, David Hasselhoff or Lee Majors then we are in real trouble.

Trouble averted - there was no secret about it.  (Lee Majors never made it onto my wall / door.  The others, and  many more, however...)

Feathered hair with Aquanet, rolled pant legs and 80's pep in your step. I can picture you blowing kisses to each of the posters each morning before you headed off to school. Hah - fun times.

Thankfully, your imagination is not entirely accurate.

Those 2 blonde professional dancers on DWTS.  Not Julianne Hough nor her brother - they're not active.  The other 2 are active... I'm too lazy to google their names.

Lindsey and Whitney, and last summer (2015 I think) one of them got married in the temple and the other one was a bridesmaid. I can never keep them straight though.
