06/12 LARRY LIPSON, LOU FERRIGNO

LARRY LIPSON - COSTA RICA CORRESPONDENT

LARRY WAS FOOD CRITIC FOR THE LOS ANGELES DAILY NEWS FOR MORE THAN 50 YEARS AND NOW FILES A WEEKLY REPORT DIRECT FROM COSTA RICA AND THE LIPSON INSTITUTE FOR ADVANCED WINE STUDIES.



LOU FERRIGNO - ACTOR

Actor Lou Ferrigno has an iconic roar.  But Lou is now ready to go public and admit that recently, his roar was heard not when in the throes of a particularly intense workout or while becoming a “hulking,” green creature on TV, but when he suffered from a more mundane problem: computer rage.  Many of us suffer the same rage inducers: the blue screen of death, network disruptions, failure to print etc., but admitting that you have a problem is the first step.  And as Lou discovered, there are ways to face this issue head-on, use some easy steps to ease the frustration, and avoid the roar.  

Lou is an American actor, fitness trainer/consultant, and retired professional bodybuilder. As a bodybuilder, Ferrigno won an IFBB Mr. America title and two consecutive IFBB Mr. Universe titles, and appeared in the bodybuildingdocumentary Pumping Iron. As an actor, he is best known for portraying the titular role in the CBS television seriesThe Incredible Hulk and vocally reprising the role in subsequent animated and computer-generated incarnations. He has also appeared in European-produced fantasy-adventures such as Sinbad of the Seven Seas and Hercules, and as himself in the sitcom The King of Queens and the 2009 comedy I Love You, Man.
