Action Jackson. I think its prevailing permutation in my teenaged days sounded like Action Jacktion - a reference to people who were 'overtly action', loosely - show-off.
So anyway, that was like ten years ago, when it was still cool to call someone an Action Jackson. But little did we know where that came from.
And on a random day at the University's Matheson library, off a random shelf - I found this.
And in it, was this - I swear it was a random page flip.
Amazing. If you want its call number its 994 B413S. Action Jackson! It's a little hard to read but here's the tagline on the advert - "Do and Dare! He's everywhere! On land & sea and in the air!"
