Wow. I don't know anything about Mike Ilitch, but he looks like a Martin Short character that needs to happen.

My contribution doesn't really have orange hair, but I'd like to make him a Dishonorary Member of the club. The universally reviled plastic-surgery-disaster Mike Jeffries, from Abercrombie & Fitch:



... Mike J is the male equivalent of that "cat lady" that everyone was picking on for a while. I'm not gonna google the cat lady, because I'm sure she's suffered enough. Mike Jeffries, however, needs to suffer a lot more.

Why is it that the head honchos at big pizza companies always turn out to be America's Most Grotesque? Are there any pizza bigwigs who are relatively non-horrible?

Strom Thurmond was the original - looked like he colored his hair with Tang.

I have always felt that Bob Larson was a closet rock n roller. Evidence:

Larson's Book of Rock



Hippie, Hindus, and Rock and Roll



Rock: Practical Help For Those Who Listen To Words And Don't Like What They Hear



Debates with Glen Benton:

Glen Benton vs. Bob Larson Phone Calls, part 1

Exposes on the likes of Bikini Kill and Nirvana on his Talk Back radio show during the mid 90s.

Case Closed.
