On that note, it is definitely time to call it a weekend. And the complete list, courtesy of Newsarama -- more smiles to come we hope.

Man, history is SO WEIRD, right? Anyway, Dewars scotch ran a series of profiles of debonair achievers attempting to convince you that if you drank their scotch you would also be a debonair achiever.
