How is Joakim Noah not on this monument to punchability?

As a Wizards fan, I'd love to see Hollins come replace Randy Whitman someone. Especially since our coach wouldn't have a Cornell connection anymore.

Well in "Tomorrow Never Dies" Moneypenny calls James a cunning linguist.

Look it's the sweatshirt Drew could've bought in Columbus.

For the music alphabet question, L is pretty good too. You got Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ludacris, Lil' Wayne, L.L. Cool J, Lady Gaga, Louis Armstrong, Lou Reed, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Lenny Kravitz etc...
