    Entity? An homage?

    Haven't found a great nickname for him yet... Helicopter Ben is nice and cute, but "The Entity" might just do the trick better.

    @Uncle_Billy_Slumming: Oh, that would be delicious. I'd love for him to have to shill tacky T-shirts while wearing one that identifies him as a Shore Store Whore. Plus, he could use some time in the sun. He'll be orange in no time!

    @Uncle_Billy_Slumming: What luxury vehicle name should be tattooed upon his paunchy torso?

    I know for sure that one set of knuckles must read MICRO and the other MACRO (obviously, the thumbs are included).

    Apparently not everyone loves Bernanke, as Wikipedia currently identifies him as "an American douchebag."

    Putin is the cover in the background, instead of Biden? That feels like subliminal messaging to me!

    @Vivien Smith-Smythe-Smith is not your Bible Spice: Has everyone forgotten that Putin was Time's Man of the Year this year?? Don't think subliminal is quite what they were going for with that one. More like history.

    @MoscowNeverSleeps: Oh, I meant that the other three covers were presidential/veep candidates in this election, and that seeing as the Republicans love to decry Obama as Socialist, it's an interesting choice for a background.


    Maybe I was too obscure?

    Obama will be Man of the Year in the colored "Time," which is smaller, printed in black and white, and contains last month's news. The white Time will name Angelina Jolie Woman of the Epoch
