[asthmaticeog]

Judd Hirsch?



David Lee Roth?

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

1. Adam Sandler

[DS1]

3. If there was a door-step glove-slap service available

much like a strip-o-gram but more violent - you'd have just been signed up :grr:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

6. it was tongue in cheek..goddamit

i hate him too

[DS1]

8. oh, ok then

I'll send you both some ladies :D

[trof]

15. It's not just me?

I don't get Adam Sandler.

[Rabrrrrrr]

18. Oh, God no. Adam Sandler DESPISERS are legion.

An entire cadre of people who don't simply dislike the man, but actively despise him. One of the unfunniest shitbags ever.

The only thing of quality he did was Opera Man on SNL, and his other funny songs. He's good at that.

But otherwise, unless he's singing, his mouth should be fucking shut.

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. Dr. Ruth

[datasuspect]

4. harry reems

[SOteric]

5. Mandy Patinkin

[Dervill Crow]

23. Oh, yeah, baby. n/t

[Xipe Totec]

9. Moe Berg. Awesome guy, awesome spy.

In 1942 the United States Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the predecessor to the CIA, recruited Moe Berg. He would work there for almost ten years. His first mission, cast as a goodwill tour of Latin America with Nelson Rockefeller's Inter-American Affairs Committee, was actually a means for Berg to covertly assess the willingness of Latin American political leaders to side with the U.S. in the war effort.

On returning from Latin America, Berg became a spy assigned to unveiling Nazi Germany's atomic capabilities, and he was part of a potential mission to assassinate Werner Heisenberg, the director of the Nazi atom-bomb research program. Because Berg spoke fluent German and was uniquely capable of digesting complicated scientific information, he was sent to Zurich to attend a lecture Heisenberg gave about the bomb to Nazi authorities. Berg determined that the possibility of a Nazi atom bomb was distant, and the assassination plot was called off.

10. Oy vey! WOODY ALLEN. And HE DID PLAY BOND!!!!!!

Jimmy Bond:

[TheMightyFavog]

13. OMG!! The Firing squad!

You can't shoot me! I have a very low threshold of death. My doctor says I can't have bullets enter my body at any time. What if I said I was Pregnant?

Ready...

Aim...

You realiza this means an angry letter to the Times?

[AntiCoup2K4]

11. Gotta go with Diamond Dave

He's already like James Bond in one way...

Just as Sean Connery will always be the real Bond, Dave will be the real singer for Van Halen.

Dave's reputation with the ladies is not unlike that of Mr Bond, and also shares the appreciation for well built automobiles (though Dave's haven't had all the cool optional equipment like guns firing out of the rear bumper and that sort of thing.)

[Scoots]

12. Yossi Bondenstein, in Geldlender

He's the man, the man with a humungous schnozz....


I kid because I love.

[asthmaticeog]

14. Fucking brilliant.

Welcome to DU.

[Rabrrrrrr]

16. Gene Simmons

[CBHagman]

17. I was going to say John Garfield, but...

...I realized he didn't come across as enigmatic and emotionally remote as Bond needed to be. There was anger and vulnerability to him.

However, the cynicism and womanizing he could do.

[JVS]

19. DLR forever!

[Beware the Beast Man]

20. Dustin Diamond

[CatholicEdHead]

21. Ben Stien?

[rockymountaindem]

Seriously

[JimmyJazz]

24. Oh *drool* *swoon* *otherwise make fool of self*

:thumbsup: excellent choice :)

[maveric]

27. Isnt Brody an Irish name?

Unless its not his real name?

[rockymountaindem]

31. I don't think it's his real name.

Everybody knows he's Jewish.

[Flying Dream Blues]

25. I have to go with Ben Stiller. But he's only half? Oh well.

[Monkey see Monkey Do]

26. Larry David - it's gotta be

[johnnie]
