Time Magazine Man of the Year

dbermanmd · 12-20-2006, 11:09 AM

As Time Magazines Man of the Year I wanted to do some due diligence as to who I share this award with. Here is a partial list:

Adolf Hitler
Joseph Stalin
Chiang Kai-Shek
Nikita Krushchev
Jimmy Carter
Ayatullah Khomeini

I would like to officially vomit now

Do I have to put this award on my resume now?

You forgot George W. Bush. Now i'm going to vomit.

I dont know about you but I will be putting it on my resume.

I haven't looked at Time for quite a while, but I think they've lost it. The charter is to find the person or thing each year that has had the greatest impact on the news. Is that people adding content to the internet? No Iraq War? No Axis of evil dilemma? No idiot president? Oh, well. BTW DB we call it the "person" of the year these days.

I guess you like keeping the company I listed initially. Interesting... Sure speaks volumes.

Sad that you can do no better than suggest that anyone who thinks Bush is a tool favors Hitler & Stalin. That sure speaks volumes, too.

I guess when you have nothing of substance to say it's easier to try to provoke reactions that allow you to fire back and therefore give yourself a false sense of moral superiority.

Tidings of comfort and joy to you, too, Doc.

The only time I read Time is when I'm waiting at the Doctors office and then it's usually at least a year old.

Except that what theForce said was:

Which implies that his urge to vomit did not occur until the mention of George W. Bush being on the list. Therefore, one could sarcastically read into theForce's witty reply that he had no urge to vomit, and therefore no great issue with being associated with Hitler and the others.

Is "he" going to come in and declare a loser?

I am so honored to accept this award. I would like to thank my parents, teachers, my dog toto, and all of you for believing in me. Can you win this two years in a row?

Here's a link to TIME: Person of the Year

Current George has made the list more than once. 1990, 2000, 2004. I think that's enough to make one heave.

Who else has made the list?

Lindbergh
Gandhi
Astronauts Anders, Borman and Lovell
Pope John Paul II
The American Soldier

Put "Dr" Berman on ignore, eat two chocolates and post me in the morning. You'll feel much better.
