Yeah, man. This guy is fucking awesome.
Also: this REALLY needs the "70s" tag.

I cannot get over how fucking funny it is for a guy with hooks (two litte j shaped hooks even) for hands to be called JJ Armes.

I met him as a kid. It was a warm morning, standing in the parking lot of Dolgin's department store. The white building was surrounded by kids and their parents and there was a touring bus off to the side. He arrived on top of the building and then rappelled down to sign boxes of toys.
He signed the box, I shook his hook and I went home.
The toy I got was the action figure of him with a briefcase full of special-purpose hands.
I'd started to wonder if I really remembered him coming down the wall on a rope or not, but I asked my mother and she confirmed that he really did it.
It should also be noted that he lost his hands as a child by playing with dynamite.
This man should not be real.

I like how the license plate on his corvette flips around, because maybe it's an entirely different pale yellow 'vette following around Christian Brando's kidnappers

This guy is the most fucking awesome dude.
You can keep your Indiana Joneses, your Barack Obamas, and your Abe Vigodas - This guy is seventy and this motherfucker can kill you with his goddamn hooks.

Is...is that...a motherfucking BUILT-IN GUN in his prosthetic arm?
This man cannot be real. If he was, I would've heard of him before now. Because he would be the most awesome man in the world.

Architeuthis Tux - 2009-01-12 Yes, that is a gun built into his prosthetic.
And he is indeed real. I met him and shook his hook.
He didn't shoot me though.

Every now and then, Texas' ability to take things way too far works out if a beautiful and strange way.
