| *Characters I despise. Boy, that is such a strong word. I'm going to say characters I don't really like. Because of my short attention span and the lack of oxygen here in Colorado I don't have enough focus or energy to despise anyone. And I'm going to include some TV people that aren't actors. Plus I haven't owned a TV since 1981 so what I've seen has been through shop windows. | |

I have to pick someone up from the airport (Steamboy) |
2 |
My BMTG brothers are more important than the Chicago order. (White Russian) |
3 |
Those chumpsicles don't need optical equipment. It sounds like a sopranesque bust out on a local chicago land sporting goods owner with a Art Schlitchter like gambling problem. (Sandman) |
4 |
Hey, I don't want to blame anyone, but nobody told me crap about crap. Crap! (The Diesel) |
5 |
The order was sent on time, but is unreadable because it got covered in bratwurst and beer when it arrived. (The Diesel) |
6 |
I'm not going to order this at all. Chicago has Michael Jordan and Oprah Winfrey - let them take care of the blind masses. (White Russian) |
7 |
Get Ditka! (The Diesel) |
8 |
I sent it, must be a postal (or e-mail) problem on their end. (Brother Nature) |
9 |
It fell under the seat in my car. (Brother Nature) |
10 |
I'm going to wait an extra week to put the order in to see if any sales come up. (White Russian) |
| This list was inspired by The Diesel's need to avoid Chicago during the Super Bowl. Shortly after the creation of this list, the Chicago order was mysteriously cancelled. | |

1 |
Cape Horn - anyone, anything, or anyplace that can confidently sport a cape horn knows it Feels Good to Be a Gangster. (The Diesel) |
2 |
South America's Amazonian rain forests are a gold mine for timber. (White Russian) |
3 |
The Brazilian Women's Volleyball team is very talented. (The Diesel) |
4 |
Brazilian Carnival much more fun than Kwanza and includes more naked people. (The Diesel) |
5 |
You can drive to South America and get a Stiletto. (Steamboy) |
6 |
South America has Lake Titicaca - the lake with a daring name that also happens to serve as the cradle of Inca civilization. (White Russian) |

Less plagues. (Sandman) |

The Guyana Tragedy introduced the term "drinking the Kool-Aid" into our vocabulary and spawned an entertaining TV show. While Africa is full of tragedy, none of the tragedies seem entertaining enough to spawn a TV show or a new catch phrase. They are just tragic. (Albuquerque Tom) |
| This list was inspired by the 1974 made for TV movie Scream of the Wolf | |

1 |
Smoking a cigar from one side of your mouth while at the same time smoking a cigarette. (The Diesel) |
2 |
When a person near death is placed on life support and would surely die without the use of technology, they can be safely said to be "riding on the handlebars" (Albuquerque Tom) |
3 |
When tandem skydiving the person in back is said to be "riding on the handlebars." (White Russian) |
4 |
Once you eat the top half of a Popsicle to expose an inch or more of the stick you can hold it with both hands while you finish the middle. They call this "Riding on the Handlebars". (The Diesel) |
5 |
When someone can't make it on their own but must ride on another's accomplishments or handouts, they are "riding on the handlebars" of life. Example: When Freddy has no job and stays with his parents for months with no ambition and no direction, Freddy is riding on the handlebars. He is also riding on the handlebars when he doesn't chip in his fair share and others have to support his lazy lifestyle. Freddy needs his own bike. If Freddy has no ambition and no direction, but lives in a house that he himself paid for, Freddy is steering. (Albuquerque Tom) |
