Thunder John - Let's Move!

October 11, 2018
878,750 pushups completed
121,250 pushups to go
875 pushups ahead of schedule

Thunder John invited back for 2018 International Walk to School Day.  Thank you Mrs. Minser for the invitation!  Lowell school rocks.

Here's a video proving that Thunder John has some dance moves... it's true!  Thank you to my good friend Beyonce (rhymes with "fiance") for supplying the dance music.  Music starts at the 4:00 mark.

Try not to be intimidated by my fantastic dance moves.  I'm just like you.

"Hath not a Thunder John hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer as another is?If you prick Thunder John, does he not bleed?"

 Actually, no.  A prick would not be sufficient to cause Thunder John to bleed - it would require an industrial saw with a diamond blade to puncture Thunder John's thick hide.  And even that is purely theoretical.

Thunder John doesn't cheat death... he wins fair and square.

Thunder John once actually appeared on a game show... Wheel of Fortune.  I was the first to spin.  The next 29 minutes of the show consisted of everyone standing around awkwardly, waiting for the wheel to stop spinning.

Superman wears Thunder John pajamas to bed.

And so on.

Now let's waive the American Flag and call it a day!  Old Glory waving Old Glory.




Peace Out,
Thunder John

"Who's better than Thunder John"? A short list of big names.



February 13, 2018
812,650 pushups completed
187,350 to go
492 pushups ahead of schedule



Thunder John has been too busy to post.  But not too busy to do pushups.  Still keeping it real for all you little people.  I don't mean that you all are little people figuratively, I mean literally - compared to Thunder John.

It's the nature of the business and I make no excuses for it.  It doesn't make Thunder John better than you - just bigger.  And bigger is better.  So maybe it does.  At least in the sleeves.

Anyway, here is a list of people that I, Thunder John can still look up to: feel free to google them.  Don't cost nuthin'. 

Hulk Hogan (aka Terry Bollea)
Carl Weathers
Jose Canseco
Steven Seagal (from Hard Target)
Barry Foote
Professor Jon Klauss
Greg (Not Bryant) Gumbel
Zeus "Tiny" Lister
Richard Crenna
Dolph Lundgren
Rip Taylor
Paul Lynde
Dick Tidrow
OddJob (from Goldfinger - the guy that threw the hats)
Meshach Taylor
Demond Wilson
Sylvester Stallone
Mr. T
...and that's about it.


Peace Out,
Thunder John

The former host of "The $1.98 Beauty Show" and guest star on "The Monkees," Taylor used to celebrate his 39th birthday every year with a scene that The Times said once featured a "lady of the night" vampire with a coffin, a dancing birthday cake and an 8-foot chicken.
