I noticed that someone had The Stig as their profile picture, and I thought it was such a good idea, I had to steal it. If you don't know who The Stig is, he's an unknown race car driver that has his identity hidden that test drives cars for the popular British show Top Gear. He's probably the favorite part of my show because of the funny comments Jeremy Clarkeson makes about him everytime he gets introduced(e.g. Some say that his genitals are on upside down, and that if he could be bothered, he could crack the Da Vinci Code in 43 seconds... all we know is, he's called the Stig.). Here's a link to more about the stig http://www.topgearshow.com/page/The+Stig+Quotes.
On another but similar note, If any of you watched the Jay Leno show you might recall the green car challenge where celebrities drove an electric car around a race track to get the best time. well, that was a rip off of Top Gear's Star in a Reasonably Priced Car challenge. Isn't it funny how American TV rips off British tv or other foreign TV shows and calls them their own. some that come to mind are the office, survivor, who wants to be a millionaire. etc?
