LOL!! Dang, that is one complete list. You even included the Boggle playing chicken! I'll have to print this out and use it for reference. :)

Some notes, tho:

Victor Aaron was killed in an accident, so there's a new person doing John Redcorn. The character isn't in the few season two scripts I have here at home, so I'll have to get back to you with the new actor's name tomorrow.

And you left out one other great the supporting character. You know the obnoxious kid with the bad haircut (who sounds a little like Butthead)? His name is Dooley and Mike Judge does his voice. He had some great lines in "Shins of the Father" like: "Your wife divorced you" and "This party's boring. Everybody hates you." He makes a cameo in this Sunday's episode ("King of the Ant Hill") too.

BTW, to all you guys doing web sites, nice job! I've been meaning to set up one of my own (I have stacks of artwork I haven't had time to even scan in... ugh!), but with such killer web sites as Noel's and Big John's, I'm wondering if I should even bother. Still, it's tempting. :>
