    I'm mostly mad they didn't accept "The Ghost With A Hammer In His Hand" for Jimmy Wilde, which is one of my favorites of all time.

    33 in 5 minutes. Than I had to give up. Maybe I've gotten to 45 in 20 minutes.

    Now that I think about it, yeah youre right. I always thought his real nick was Superman Tony Zale (ive read articles describing him as such), but I see its just a play on his real nick.
