I iz the undisputed FWFR avatar champion of the world, people! It took me about 3 years, but here I am!!!! I don't know what to do with all of the prize money when it comes, and I'm going to have to hire an agent for all of the endorsement deals that are sure to start rolling in.  Oh, and I promise not to forget who put me here: all of you, the little people.  
In honor of me, I give you

There is a limitless number of things you can do with this, the first positive integer in an infinite line of values. Go wild!
My interpretation: an homage to avatar contest No. 1 ("Muppets," won by one benj clews, who has won only one av contest - coincidence???) - one naughty muppet. |

Bag Full of Money
Floating I'm floating on down through the sky
Never had no ambition to learn how to fly
I'll be glad when it's over and ready to land
With this bag full of money I've got in my hand
Oh I grew up believing in Jesse and Frank
Cause I never had nothin' or no one to thank
And I came pretty close to unloadin' a bank
But I was saved by my draft board who made me a yank
Floating I'm floating...
And in the 101st they busted your hump
But they taught me a man isn't always a chump
In the course of Korea I learned how to jump
In the card game of life I was holding a trump
Floating I'm floating...
If you can't get a job and they think you're insane
If the years of your youth have been washed down the drain
And you wake up some mornin' with nothin' but pain
It was then I decided to grab me a plane
Floating I'm floating...
With all of my training it wasn't too tough
Now I'm through taking orders and all of their guff
Gonna buy a Rolls Royce and some luxury stuff
Cause a veteran's pension ain't nearly enough
Floating I'm floating...
(McGuinn/Levy)

Gordon Banks is one of England's goalkeeping legends, surely our best ever and one of the greatest the world has seen.
But why one?
For a kick-off, one is normally the number on a keeper's jersey.
England hosted the World Cup in the summer of 1966. Banks experienced his finest weeks as a footballer when his team reached the final having just conceded one goal, a penalty from Portugal�s Eusebio. He really lived up to his nickname: Banks of England (something to do with safety and security). After a dramatic final against West Germany, England could lift the World Cup for the first and so far only time.
Banks would only play in one more World Cup. England travelled to Mexico to defend their title in 1970. Banks, already famous for winning the World Cup in 1966, become even more so after this tournament. This was largely thanks to an incident called �The Save of the Century�. England played Brazil in round one and a Jairzinho cross from the right was met perfectly by Pel� who headed it down towards Gordon�s bottom right corner. As the ball hit the ground in front of the goalline, he managed to flick it with his outstreched right hand as it came up. The ball rose over the bar for a corner. Despite this save, England lost one nil and later would lose 3-2 against West Germany in the quarterfinal (when Banks was sidelined with an injury).
It was a car accident that made him blind on his right eye, causing his retirement in 1972. I remember the shock people felt at the time when I was growing up in Staffordshire. Just months earlier he had been voted England�s Player of the Year and also won another League Cup with his club, Stoke City. Gordon Banks kept 35 clean sheets and only let in 57 goals in his 73 appearances for England.
So Banks's career was brought to an end when he lost the sight in one eye, but he'll long be remembered as England's number one keeper of the 20th century. |
