This is a question Claims to Fame

Rob writes, "My photoshop claim to fame: the way the crop tool greys out the rest of the image? That was my idea. I sent it to the Abobe features request thing back in ooh probably about 1998. (After spending a frustrating day cropping images for a dull
website, and wishing the tool worked better.)"

What crappy claims to fame can you make?

Dave Prowse Secret Weapon
Dave Prowse grew up in Southmead Council estate in Bristol. (Unfortunately, so did Julie Burchill, who often touts this as debatable evidence of her 'working class-ness'. But I digress). So did my dad.

Dave Prowse, owing to his massive size, used to work as a bouncer in the (then)Glen nightclub in the 60's. My dad and his mates used to go, but they were usually a bit skint. They used to jump up and down on Daves' feet until he let them in for free. And why, even though Dave was 6'6" and my dad is 5'5", did this work?

Because Darth Vader had really bad bunions! If only Luke had known that I'm sure the Force would have triumphed sooner...
