Carlos Ray "Chuck" Norris (born March 10, 1940) is an American martial artist and actor. After serving in the United States Air Force, he began his rise to fame as a martial artist and has since founded his own school, Chun Kuk Do. As a result of his "tough guy" image, an Internet phenomenon began in 2005 known as Chuck Norris facts, ascribing various implausible or even impossible feats to Norris.
Norris appeared in a number of action films, such as Way of the Dragon in which he starred alongside Bruce Lee, and was The Cannon Group's leading star in the 1980s. He next played the starring role in the television series Walker, Texas Ranger from 1993 to 2001.
Norris is a devout Christian and politically conservative. He has written several books on Christianity and donated to a number of Republican candidates and causes. In 2007 and 2008, he campaigned for former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, who was running for the Republican nomination for President in 2008. In the 2012 election he endorsed former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich. Norris also writes a column for the conservative website WorldNetDaily.
Bruce Lee (born Lee Jun-fan; 27 November 1940 – 20 July 1973) was a Chinese AmericanHong Kong actor,martial arts instructor, philosopher, film director, film producer, screenwriter, and founder of the Jeet Kune Do martial arts movement. He is widely considered by many commentators, critics, media and other martial artists to be the most influential martial artist and pop culture icon of the 20th Century. He is often credited with changing the way Asians were presented in American films.
Lee was born in San Francisco to parents of Hong Kong heritage but was raised in Hong Kong until his late teens. Lee returned to the United States at the age of 18 to claim his U.S. citizenship and receive his higher education. It was during this time that he began teaching martial arts, which soon led to film and television roles.
His Hong Kong and Hollywood-produced films elevated the traditional Hong Kong martial arts film to a new level of popularity and acclaim, and sparked a major surge of interest in Chinese martial arts in the West in the 1970s. The direction and tone of his films changed and influenced martial arts and martial arts films in Hong Kong and the rest of the world, as well. He is noted for his roles in five feature-length films: Lo Wei's The Big Boss (1971) and Fist of Fury (1972); Way of the Dragon (1972), directed and written by Lee; Warner Brothers' Enter the Dragon (1973) and The Game of Death (1978), both directed by Robert Clouse.
Jack Leo Van Impe (born February 9, 1931, though peoplesmart.com indicates a 1930 birth) is a televangelist who is known for his half-hour weekly television series Jack Van Impe Presents, an eschatological commentary on the news of the week through his interpretation of the Bible. The program airs throughout the United States, Canada, and several other countries through both religious broadcasters and the purchase of paid programming time on commercial television stations. Van Impe's website claims that he is known as the "Walking Bible" because of his extensive memorization of Bible verses. Van Impe's wife Rexella (born Rexella Mae Shelton on November 29, 1932), in Missouri, shares his TV ministry as co-host.
Jack Van Impe's parents immigrated to the United States from Belgium. Originally from Troy, Michigan, Van Impe was an accordion player as a child, performing duets with his missionary father across Michigan and other states. In 1948, Van Impe graduated from high school and entered Detroit Bible Institute, earning his diploma in 1952 and beginning his career as a preacher and evangelist as well as an extensive recording career. In an episode of Jack Van Impe Presents, Jack notes that during his years working with the Billy Graham crusades, Van Impe met his future wife, Rexella, who was an organist with the crusades. The couple were married on August 21, 1954, and started their own joint ministry.
I'm so glad to see you..delighted that you came
I swear you haven't changed
I called you to tell you, I'm coming home in seven days
In a word it's all arranged
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind, and my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you, and how I'll see your face again
EVERYTHING IS FINE-APRIL 29
TRY TO BE ON TIME-APRIL 29
I used to be fearful, of the voice inside my head
And all the foolish things it said
Oh, tell me you'll be there-It would be just like old times
April 29
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind, and my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you, and how I'll see your face again
(CHORUS)
Unlock the door and...throw away the key
The sun is shining-We're finally free
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind, and my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you, and how I'll see your face again
(CHORUS 2x)
I'm so glad to see you
Delighted that you came
I swear you haven't changed
I called you to tell you
I'm coming home in seven days
In a word it's all arranged
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind
And my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you
And now I'll see your face again
Everything is fine, April twenty-nine
Try to be on time, April twenty-nine
I used to be fearful
Of the voice inside my head
And all the foolish things it said
Oh, tell me you'll be there
It would be just like old times

And my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you

Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
No she will never look to me
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
She will never look to me
Stolen, this baby, screams "somebody save me!"
Stolen, this baby, screams "somebody save me!"
Stolen, this baby, screams "somebody save me!"
Stolen, this baby, screams "somebody save me!"
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
She will never look to me
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
She will never look to me
Well, I have a feeling that its said and done...
and I never thought that they would ruin all my fun
Well, I have a feeling that its said and done... (that its said and done.)
and I never thought that they would ruin all my fun (they would ruin all my fun)
She looks at me as if I have no tongue to speak...
But I know that in it's twilight she will see
She looks at me as if I have no tongue to speak...
But I know that in it's twilight she will see
All the rays will burn her eyes
All the rays will burn her eyes
All the rays will burn her eyes
All the rays
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
She will never look to me
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
