Next, do some homework.. The "Man Of The Year" in Time magazine isn't always a good person. It's the person that has most influenced the events of the preceeding year. And in all honesty, can you think of someone who has done more influencing on U.S, or even global, events? To take from Time Magazine's own words : "the single person who, for better or worse, has most influenced events in the preceding year." Time has, in the past, given the title to such people as Hitler (1938), Stalin (1939), and Auatullah Khomeini (1979). It is not always an honor to receive the title... it is merely recognition of the year's big influential figure. For some more info, read up at http://www.snopes.com/rumors/manyear.htm. To take from the page's closing statement, "But complaints along the lines of "How dare you even consider honoring a murderer like Osama bin Laden!" are likely to fall on deaf ears, because honor is not what Time's "Man of the Year" is about." Before judging, be sure that the full story is known. ¤]\[][G}{T§TÖ®]v[¤ http://www.geocities.com/npicrash NightStorm_Draco_@hotmail.com Admin@AmericanPearlFan.cjb.net NightStorm@isyourgod.cjb.net I've seen the wicked fruit of your vine, Destroy the man who lacks a strong mind Human pride sings a vengeful song Inspired by the times you've been walked on My stage is shared by many millions, Who lift their hands up high because they feel this We are one We are strong, The more you hold us down the more we press on What if you did?
