5. Mr. Burns, Baby!
"Smithers, what's that strange fluttering in my chest?"

"I think your heart has started beating again, Sir."

"Aaah, that takes me back."

I love Kevin Spacey; and he's excellent in that movie.

8. Freshmen at VMI elected Dabney a-hole of the week a record # of times
The entire first semester I think it was.

He played a good a-hole in "9 to 5" AND "Buffalo Bill" (little known TV show).
