Website of the Week
By Seth Bernard, Contributing Writer
What does Dominic "Bad Attitude" Butler have in common with a man named "Skweetis?" They are among the 637 proud members of the Unofficial Mr. T Fan Club. Laurence Tureaud, better known as the mohawked and jewelry-laden Mr. T, is enshrined with his very own website where one can see him in all his fool-pitying, jibba-jabba-ing glory. Best known for his role as Agent B.A. Baracus in the early eighties television series, "The A-Team," Mr. T is proudly captured on the site in dozens of pictures with the rest of the A-Team.

There is also a comprehensive biography from which one can learn not only his real name and humble backgrounds, but also that his trademark spike haircut originated from an article on the Mandinkas in an issue of National Geographic. The biography is also replete with witty quotes from the intimidating, yet strikingly warm-hearted wrestling champ such as, "Any man who don't love his momma can't be no friend of mine." Through the Mr. T website ring, fanatics can uncover rare battles such as "Mr. T versus Britney Spears" or "Mr. T versus Superman."
