Never heard of him. (neither has Mrs Red, and she likes boys more than I do)

This is interesting from his wiki page. I love wiki.


When Sherman guest-starred on an episode of the Jack Webb television series Emergency! ("Fools", season 3, episode 17, aired January 19, 1974), he found a new calling that focused more on his personal life, and he eventually left the public spotlight and became an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT). He volunteered with the Los Angeles Police Department, working with paramedics, and giving CPR and first aid classes. He officially became a technical Reserve Police Officer with the Los Angeles Police Department in the 1990s, a position he still holds today. He was later promoted to Captain status in the Los Angeles Police Department. For more than a decade he served as a medical training officer at the Los Angeles Police Academy, instructing thousands of police officers in first aid and CPR. He was named LAPD's Reserve Officer of the Year in 1999.

Sherman also became a Reserve Deputy Sheriff in 1999 with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department continuing his CPR/emergency training of new deputy hires. Sherman retired from the Sheriff's Department in 2010, but continues with the LAPD. According to Sherman, "I've been bestowed a mountain of blessings. I felt a need to start giving back."[citation needed]

He subsequently received several awards for his humanitarian efforts. Sherman founded the Bobby Sherman Volunteer EMT Foundation. His organization coordinates medical services at many community and charity events in southern California.[citation needed]

Sherman founded the Brigitte & Bobby Sherman Children's (BBSC) Foundation. The foundation's mission is to provide motivated students in Ghana with a high quality education and music program, thus giving them the tools they need to pursue higher education and become successful, contributing adults.

Sherman built a one-fifth scale model of Disneyland's Main Street, made entirely by hand in his yard at his home.[5]

I'll post a few iconic 70's pictures. I will be awarding a number of slobbery kisses based on difficulty of question and accuracy of answer.

The match was recently subject of a film, starring Toby Maguire as Fischer.

Much is made of the Fischer game, but this one, in 1978, between Karpov (nearest) and Korchnoi is arguably more interesting.

Korchnoi had defected from the USSR and the Soviet machine was furious that it had lost the world title 6 years earlier in Iceland.

On September 20, 1973, women’s tennis star Billie Jean King faced off against Bobby Riggs in an exhibition match dubbed the “Battle of the Sexes.” The 55-year-old Riggs, a former Wimbledon champion, believed he could still beat any woman player, and, after much prodding, King eventually took him up on the challenge. Riggs hyped the contest with a slew of misogynistic comments, including that “the best way to handle women is to keep them pregnant and barefoot.” Yet King ended up eviscerating him 6-4, 6-3, 6-3 in front of more than 30,000 fans at the Houston Astrodome

I'd totaly forgotten about Betamax.

How we take things for granted though. Who among us has ever given the bar-code a second thought and yet it's totally ubiquitous, the world would grind to a standstill without it.

The Bar Code is everywhere, and yet we never give it a moments thought. Because it is so efficient.

At its simplest, it is on every pack of every product in every supermarket in the world.

And every parcel delivered, and so much else.

Almost unheard of for a Bar Code to be wrong, too.
