Really. All the media talk is centered around climate change, the economic recession, and the upcoming Presidential election.

So, I thought I could cover one of those important stories that often gets overlooked. Who is the Ultimate Survivor?

Is it Les Stroud who claims to be the Survivorman or is it (I swear I'll name my child this) Bear Grylls host of Discovery Channel's Man Vs. Wild?

So who are we dealing with, you ask? Here's the quick rundown:

Les Stroud

Age: 45

Strengths: Knows how to be truly alone...Great at finding food...Starts fires from practically nothing...great in cold weather

Weaknesses: His age (above)...struggles in warmer climates


Bear Grylls

Age: 33

Strengths: Can climb practically anything...can, and often will, eat anything...former member of the British Special Forces

Weaknesses: Not as cautious as he often should be...struggles to make fire without flint

Seeing as there is no great way to test this without actually putting both guys out in the middle of no where and setting a destination, I guess this will have to be up to a vote.

Whatcha think?

Number 15: One - U2

Number 14: Candle in the Wind - Elton John

Number 13: American Pie - Don McLean

Number 12: Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Number 11: Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin

Number 10: Purple Haze - Jimi Hendrix

Number 9: Johnny B. Goode - Chuck Berry

Number 8: Good Vibrations - The Beach Boys

Number 7: Satisfaction - The Rolling Stones

Number 6: Hey Jude - The Beatles

Number 5: Respect - Aretha Franklin

Number 4: Yesterday - The Beatles

Number 3: What's Goin' On? - Marvin Gaye

Number 2: Like A Rolling Stone - Bob Dylan

Number 1: Imagine - John Lennon

*DISCLAIMER - Please note that, in my opinion, a song only becomes "great" after 10 to 15 years. A songs greatness is not only determined by its ability to become popular, but also it's ability to maintain it's popularity.*

A thing of the 70's? A lie of the 70's? I always thought so. But THIS website may have changed my mind.

Created by Jeff Milner, while experimenting with a Flash program, this site allows you to listen to to original segment of song and then the "reverse track."

Some of the songs in question are a bit fishy as far as the accuracy of the supposed lyrics, but others are dead on (hence - the intentional ones).

Back in the day, this was a big issue. People, specifically Bible Belt, Anti-Rock Music pastors said that this was Satan's way of getting involved in our lives and sending subliminal messages. Personally, I think that may be a little too much, but weird none the less.

Check it out! And I expect to be the "Klick of the week," Kay!

...On the Professional or Collegiate level. My Top 10 list would go, as follows:

Number 10: Lenny Wilkens

Number 9: Phog Allen

Number 8: Coach K

Number 7: Pat Riley

Number 6: Dean Smith

Number 5: Phil Jackson

Number 4: Adolph Rupp

Number 3: Bobby Knight

Number 2: Red Auerbach

Number 1: John Wooden

Who knew this battle even occurred? I would'a thought that this would have made national headlines. But in the spirit of Kay's Animal Face-Off bit, I felt this had to be shared.

Just a few times in the video I'd like to point out:

2:47

3:16

5:03

And finally, 8:04-8:30 when Bruce seals the deal.

Is this the outcome you'd have expected?
