    Crud. I had decided to actually go ahead and participate in this tasteless endeavour. As I watched the ball descending in Times Square last night on TV, I realized I had forgetten to finalize my list and send it in.

    No matter, I wouldn’t have done that well anyway. I think I had Saddam, Osama, and Reagan (and I felt bad about that last one because I really only wanted to include people who I didn’t like, and therefore whose death wouldn’t bother me much).

  2. Joel B. Says:

    So when people refer to Bend Over Barney, are they referring to the Barney Gumble person who Misha tears apart or to the person who is mocking Barney Gumble as Bend Over Barney?

  3. Xrlq Says:

    Bend Over Barney = Barney Gumble.

  4. Joel B. Says:

    Okay, that’s what I figured.
