Chevy Chase is the greatest man who ever lived. Well, perhaps not, but on the list of funny people named after cars, Chevy almost edges out Henry Ford for the number one spot.

Actually, Chevy is my favorite person to watch fall down. He got his start in show business playing drums in a band called "Chameleon Church" - a psychadelic 60's group who's remaining members went on to form Steely Dan.

Chevy was a founding member of Saturday Night Live, but left after one year to follow his dream of movie stardom, hitting it big in some of the Vacation series, Fletch, Caddyshack, and Spies Like Us.

Some of his lesser know hits include:

  • Seems Like Old Times
    Foul Play
    Cops and Robbersons
    Dirty Work
