Okay, so after being bitterly disappointed by Ray Salamon's failure to take any photos of his Bacon Brulée, I went looking for some other fellow to take his place as the Man Who is Full of Win for this week; and I found Jack Churchill.
A British fellow who went up against the Axis powers in WW2 with a longbow, sword, and bagpipes. Jack Churchill - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
So that's my suggestion for MWFW for this week. Who would you like to nominate?

Come on, who else? There's billions of people in the world and billions more who've gone before; surely there are plenty of folks who've accumulated vast stashed of win throughout their lives!

And how has no one said Charlie Sheen? The man is bi-winning. Not just winning, but bi-winning.
