We've already discussed this.

The order is (top is best):

Bill Nye
LaVar Burton
Bob Saget
James Buchanan
Mr Wizard
A pinata
Bacon

Bob Saget is better than a pinata? I'm not sure I agree with that. He was never stuffed with candy even if I did want to hit him with a stick on occasion.

yesterday was so fun

"the old guy fell down the stairs and died"

[WTBass]

Yes it was...I still don't understand how I was able to do that! You had to have shot me and gave me damage because the fall never does that much damage! It was funny as hell...screen shot would have been perfect!
