Either we are both going insane, or midget accidentally said something which makes sense.

Diabetics everywhere will undoubtedly understand why you value Pamela Anderson's contribution to humanity more highly than Insulin. 😞 Any chance you can get a refund on that thinking cap?

Shouldn't be too tough in a country with a population of about 3500.

Could be tough for him to find his head, I would think 😛 To put the fabled thinking cap on? 🙄

😛 As a fellow American - a brother to Ritter - this might not make much sense to you, BigRancidBird

My list would include:

1) Henry Ford
2) Bill Gates (I like his philanthropy and ideas to improve education)
3) Eisenhower (for the interstate highway system)
4) Einstein
5) Martin Luther King, Jr.
6) Sergei Rachmoninov (ended up here like Einstein)
7) Nixon (opened up dialogue with China and Russia) and accidently
opened up the era of looking at ethics.
8) Bill W. ( ushered in the era of 12 step meetings)
9) Lincoln
10) Roosevelt ( still living with his influence today)
