Harland Sanders, the famous “Colonel Sanders” of Kentucky Fried Chicken fame, lived his last fifteen years or so not in Kentucky or anywhere you might expect.

I was watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire yesterday, and there was the $500,000 question that Ken Jennings and Matt Damon struggled with. “With another career path already established, who got his first taste of the entertainment world when he entered a Steve Martin look-alike contest?” the question read. The options were Dr. Oz, Jerry Springer, Bill Nye, or Anthony Bourdain. The host Jimmy Kimmel was asked (as a lifeline) and he knew it was Bill Nye. I will know this forever.
