Best of the Rest

Although my full name is Charles Barrett Porterfield, II I have become colloquially recognized as 'Chuck.' Chuck is not a particularly uncommon appellation, but just as some people feel a connection with their ethnic or cultural identity, I embrace my own form of Chuck Pride. As I suspect that my inbox would be filled with queries about my opinions on other notable Chucks, I present to you:

Chuck's Top 5 Other Guys Named Chuck

5) Chuck Yeager - Anyone can break a world record, but only one man can be the first to break the sound barrier.
4) Chuck Berry - All this talk about rock and roll being the devil's music is all well and good, but it takes a true pervert to make it happen.
3) Chuck Liddell - Ice, man.
2) Chuck Norris - I seriously doubt that anyone who embraces internet irony will ever be called "fighter of the year" by BLACK BELT MAGAZINE.
-and, without question-
1) Chuck Jones - If "Duck Amuck" and "Duck Dodgers in the 24th and Half Century" were the only cartoons left after the apocalypse, civilization could still rebuild itself.
