I don't know if you all caught this over the weekend but Time magazine named ME Person of the Year.


I saw this in passing a magazine rack. Funny how they didn't call to tell me but oh well I, as always, humbly accept.

3. The TIME cover
reminded me of the November 1985 (Vol. 168, No.5) National Geographic cover.

6. Isn't this stupid?
They so wimped out because they couldn't stand putting a Democrat in as person of the year.

7. Times' "Person of the Year - Underpants". I like it!
They probably didn't have the space to print it properly.

9. HAH! What a choice...
Edited on Mon Dec-18-06 09:15 AM by Crankie Avalon
...not the OP, I mean TIME'S "All of You, Out There." "You are all Fabulous."

TIME magazine as smarmy lounge performer..."All of you give yourselves a hand, you're a wonderful audience..."

18. Yeah, something similar
...happened to me many years back when I was watching TV and was informed by a talking bear that I, and I alone, could prevent forest fires. And then a few years later, Ed McMahon mailed me a letter saying I had won a huge cash prize. It's never shown up though. Maybe I should write him back.
