--------------------

I have come to laugh off these stupid lists. But some of the choices were okay. The television shows that they picked for the list really caught me off guard. Television was rocked when Hawaii Five O debuted. WTF?

Pants

Indeed it did Rock! You've got to be kidding me. This and the McDonald's song?! Are they sponsors or something? Corporate shilling truely does rock.

Rypro 525

Also, why is vh1's BTM on the list, this is also corperate shilling.

TheMadMonk

Worst. List. Ever.

Rypro 525

According to some interview on either mtv or vh1 ( a grammy special), some old guy that was one of Sinatra's friends said that Sinatra was sort of glad the speech was interupted since he had a hard time with it and wanted to get off the stage. (I have a fuzzy memory but I think that is how the interview went.

Groucho

No mention of Clinton playing sax on Arsenio? That would be my pick.

Rypro 525

That is the number one pick, or are you just messing with us?
