Best Bands/Musicians in the State College Music Scene in the Late 90s...

1. Giants of Science
2. The Fables
3. John Cunningham
4. Green Eggs and Spam

Apologies to Velveeta, JR and whoever he was with at the time, Ken Volz, The Collective, Bluesuadegroove, Love Seed Mama Jump, Mr Greengenes, and all of the other great artists that barely missed the cut. I probably saw more live music in my last two years of college than in the rest of my life combined, and it's one of the things I miss most.

Coming up with the Mount Rushmore of Caddyshack characters could be an all-day affair. How can I narrow it down to 4?
1.czervik 2.Spackler 3.Smails 4. Ty Webb… but you are correct. There are at least 4 more… we need 2 mountains! We will need to meet and drink some beers to get this correct!!

Lacy, Spalding, Dr Beeper, the Bishop, Chuck Schick, Judge Smails' wife, Lou, Mr and Mrs Haverkamp. Every one of them so perfect in their own way.
“Hey Wang, I think this is a private club so don’t tell anyone that you’re Jewish!” Mount Rushmore of greatest quotes!

Slow time of year; any Mt. Rushmore's you care to offer up? Could be super specific (Mt. Rushmore of Eastern PA Microbreweries) or very general (Mt. Rushmore of Best Places to Visit) So, it's the top four of whatever category you decide. I'll go first....

Mt. Rushmore of American Muscle Cars

Shelby Cobra 427 Super Snake



1969 AMC AMX/3



1969 GTO Judge Convertible



1971 Plymouth GTX

Thumb, Index, Middle, Ring.

The pinky is superfluous. (Cartoon characters agree.)
Pinky contributes approximately 50% of your grip strength. The ring finger is scientifically the least important.

Mount Rushmore of aliases of our favorite Rivals board troll...
  1. MilesKauffman - early days when he did a lot of trolling, but also mixed it in with some actual serious posts. He was a troll, but not a completely unsufferable troll.
  2. 21Guns - Just all out trolling, day after day. This was the point where he was so aggressive that he was looking to throw down in the Champs parking lot.
  3. Larryrise/Psugo823/Psubiomed - several aliases he used over a year long span where he kept making outlandish predictions, would be wrong, then would disappear and come back as a new person for a fresh start. Considering all of them one since there was so little time moving from one to another.
  4. Delcolion915 - his current handle. I spend very little time over on that board these days, but it took me about 10 minutes to pick him out. He's been mostly much more passive, but does suddenly fly off the handle with outlandish stuff when he can't control himself. If he keeps it up, he might actually make it more than a year of posting under the same alias (which hasn't happened since the Gunnsie days).
The other bizarre one was the Humanist dude, I forget his board handle.

Mount Rushmore of American mathematicians:

1. Bill Thurston. Nobody else who has set foot on Earth had better geometric imagination than did Thurston.
2. John Milnor. He and Nash were contemporaries, graduate students at Princeton at the same time. Nash was Nash but Milnor was better. (Nash dealt poorly with this fact.) Nobody wrote like Milnor, what Jeff Beck is to guitar playing, Milnor and Serre are to mathematical exposition.
3. Mike Artin. My advisor was his postdoc. Emil Artin was one of the greatest algebraists ever, but Mike was much better than his father, according to my advisor.
4. Steve Smale.
5. John
