    Like I said, Gore has done good things but is absolutely the most uncool person on the planet. Have you ever seen the guy give a speech or anything? Makes me wanna bang my head on the wall. On the other hand Evel banged his head on things really hard so we didn't have to. Plus his outfit just screams 70s cool.

    Motown for ROY!

    "dirtbike" was a nice touch. Solid restraint as well, "BMX" would have been too far.
    STEW BEEF!

    I agree, if this was a "Deathwish tournament" Evel would be the man.

    Is it cool to be nuts?

    I'll make a brief case for Gore here.

    First, the "I created the internet" thing is most likely urban legend. But it's cool that he's even in that discussion.

    Onto Tipper. Being cool isn't about being perfect, you need to have flaws. He made a mistake there, no doubt.

    Dude lost the presidency under shady circumstances and went on to get fat and grow a mountain man beard. Very cool.

    Now, he's being told that if he wants to take back what he probably feels was his anyways he probably can, but he's basically saying, "Leader of the free world? Fuck that!"

    He's got moxie, IMO.

    The "I created the environment" line is funny.

    ...and I forgot that little "the person that has done more for the environment than anyone else alive" -thing
