... and funny too.

Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

| Well; I guess we need to create a wiki page for our fearless leader: the 'Project Glück'. |

Edited to add that if, as he says, he's using Twitter and Wikipedia as references, then it's gonna be tough to get Kil on a card.

I have an oddity in brain function that makes me visually record everyone as a Simpsons character. From meeting him in San Diego, here's how I remember Kil:

Can we sign him up for Twitter without his consent? |

Hahahaha this is awesome.
I'd figure Chris Angel would be there as well since he's so outspoken against psychics. :P |

A lot of people should be there. Tim Farely for example. And where is Christopher Hitchens? And hell, I can think of dozens of others off the top of my hat...
Cool thing you did Mooner!!! I'm tempted to change my avatar. |

Thanks! Of course, it's just a recycled Comic Store Guy, with grayed hair, a suit coat, and your hat.

What, you didn't use Simpsonize Me, like Jago did? |

{Edit.}
No. I couldn't yet get Simpsonize Me to work. I used the Create Your Simpsons Avatar, here for my own Simpsons simulacrum, but I'm not very happy with the result, due to the limited options:
But maybe others will come out of either of these with better results? I'll experiment more, myself.

Here's one of Kil that I did with the Simpsons Movie avatar maker:
Personally, I thought my first attempt at Kil was better. For instance, you can't have both a hat and a rat-tail with the avatar maker at the movie site. And no suit coats.

| Actually, mooner, I don't really where that hat much. That was only the second time and I haven't worn it since the wedding. Also, I wear shorts, a t-shirt and sneakers, mostly. Oh, and glasses. Sometimes on my face and sometimes hanging on one of those geeky glasses strings. |
