Top Ten Most Awesome People You May Not Know Of 2008

In no particular order…

10.) Barack Obama’s best friend. I dont know who he is…but talk about a come up!!

9.) Junot Diaz. I mean, this guy won the Pulitzer for his FIRST novel, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. Some of you may know him. But I’m pretty sure most of y’all don’t because you come here to get all of your news and entertainment blather.

8.) Anthony Anderson’s agent. I mean…this guy is everywhere. It’s kinda crazy.

7.) Heron Preston. All because of a freakin’ blog. What a life.

6.) The guy who popularized the whole “fish suck the dead skin off your feet” thing. Yeah, that guy. Awesome year bro.

5.) The little Filipino singing sensation, Charice.

4.) Fleet Foxes. These guys came out of nowhere, with what seems to be almost like a new spin on chamber music. Its like choral, folk, kinda stuff. But cool. They are on EVERYONES top 20 albums of 08 list.

3.) Lisa Jack. She took pictures of Obama his freshman year at Occidental College. On some random ish. Wow. Again, what a come up.

2.) Newspaper workers, who worked in the actual press room. If they were smart, they took the Obama press plates home. They’ll be worth millions.

1.) Whoever decided on the “5 dollar foot long.” A real American hero.

    Even though this is in “no particular order,” your #1 is truly first in my book. That $5 foot long saved my stomach (from starvation and/or mexican food) at least thirty times this semester.

    The best part is that it was $5 after taxes… there is something so damn satisfying about handing over a small bill, especially if it’s only an Abe.

    Thank you Jason, and thank you 5 dollar foot long guy.

    not to mention the five dollar foot long song. that was solid advertising gold. or maybe silver.

    the gold should really go to the newest geico commercials with the pile of eyeball money.
