Real McCoy

Real deal.
Oilers on early trains had to be oiled to stop friction on the drive wheels. Oilers always failed... except the McCoy brand and they became known as the best and 'the real McCoy'

These appear to be the real McCoy.

linus torvalds

Linus Torvalds is the genius from Finland who created Linux and wrote the first Linux kernel. He is an extremely talented programmer and yet he's very modest. (The guy doesn't even make a profit from any of the distributions of Linux out there.) He is the total opposite of Microsoft's Bill Gates (who fears the growth that Linux has experienced in the past 14 years). Linus is a creative, good natured programmer who derives satisfaction from putting out an open source OS that actually works. On the other hand, Bill Gates is an unoriginal person, who likes destroying small companies, and derives satisfaction from making grossly unnecessary gobs of money from selling software that crashes often.

Power to the penguin!

Al Pacino

One of the coolest and greatest actors alive (along with Robert De Niro.) I'd include Marlon Brando but he's passed away now. Brando was also great because without him there wouln't have been a Pacino or De Niro.

1- Starred in the Godfather part I, II and III as Michael Corleone
2- Starred in Scarface as Tony Montana
3- Several other movies that are including Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, Dick Tracy, Scent of a Woman etc.

Favorite quotes:
"Never let your enemies know what you're thinking. "
Pacino to Andy Garcia in Godfather III

"If history has taugh us anything is that you can kill anyone. "
Pacino in Godfather II

"Fawking"
reapeated Oh I dunno a 100 times maybe as Tony Montana in Scarface.

Sean Penn may have won this year's Oscar but he's no Pacino.
