No, no, no.
But here's my personal Hall of Fame:
Roger Keith "Syd" Barrett
1946-2006
Special achievement: Total mental breakdown
Quote: "My head kissed the ground
I was half the way down,
Treading the sand, please, please
Please lift a hand
I'm only a person
With Eskimo chain
I tattooed my brain all away
Won't you miss me?
Wouldn't you miss me at all?"
Terence "Steve" McQueen
1930-1980
Special achievement: Rolling Stones song "Starfucker" contains the line "giving head to Steve McQueen"
Quote: "I believe in me. I'm a little screwed up, but I'm beautiful."
Siddhartha "Sid" Gautama
563 BC-483 BC (approx.)
Special achievement: Complete enlightenment
Quote: "All things must pass away."
George Harrison, MBE

Special achievement: The "Quiet Beatle"
Quote: "All things must pass away."
