Glen Jacobs

His real name is Glen Jacobs. He earned a degree in English Literature at Northeast Missouri State University, where he played both basketball and football. Most fans are aware that he is very outspoken in terms of politics and is even a member of the Free State Project. He hosted a podcast titled The Tiny Political Show under the pseudonym Citizen X (from March 16, 2007 to March 13, 2008) and ran a blog called The Adventures of Citizen X at AdventuresOfCitizenX.com and is also a contributor to LewRockwell.com.
If all that wasn’t surprising enough, he even owns an insurance company with his wife called The Jacobs Agency, which is located in Tennesse.
How do we know him better?

You Will Never Walk Alone....

Fans of Everton and Liverpool always debated who he supported. In an interview in 2008, he cleared the air.
"Here's the deal: my father was born in Everton, my family are officially Evertonians, so if it comes down to a derby match or an FA Cup final between the two, I would have to support Everton. But after a concert at Wembley Arena I got a bit of a friendship with Kenny Dalglish, who had been to the gig and I thought 'You know what? I am just going to support them both because it's all Liverpool.'"

Whose words?

impossibly long ash........

Though he loved cigar, he used to smoke only half of each cigar but kept the butts. No matter where we went - anywhere in the world - his staff had to collect all the butts and put them in a special box. That box was brought back and the butts were handed to one of the gardeners, who used to smoke them in his pipe.
He prepared for difficult negotiations by sticking a hatpin into a cigar, then later lighting and smoking the cigar until the attention of the entire audience was on the impossibly long ash (wondering when it would fall off) and not on any of the points his opponent was trying to make.Yeah, he was smart !!

Who was he ?

Funny Ser *Must've heard of him*

X of La Mancha, is a Spanish novel by Y. It follows the adventures of a nameless hidalgo who reads so many chivalric romances that he loses his sanity and decides to set out to revive chivalry, undo wrongs, and bring justice to the world, under the name X. He recruits a simple farmer, Sancho Panza, as his squire, who often employs a unique, earthy wit in dealing with X's rhetorical orations on antiquated knighthood. X, in the first part of the book, does not see the world for what it is, and prefers to imagine that he is living out a knightly story. The story implements various themes, such as intertextuality, realism, metatheatre, and literary representation. Published in two volumes, in 1605 and 1615, X is considered one of the most influential works of literature from the Spanish Golden Age and the entire Spanish literary canon. Y said that the first chapters are taken from "The Archive of La Mancha" and the rest translated from the Arabic from the Moorish author Cid Hamet Ben Engeli. This metafictional trick appears to be designed to give a greater credibility to the text, by implying that X is a real character and that the story truly occurred several decades back. Yet it is obvious to the reader that such a thing is impossible, because the presence of Cide Hamete would have caused numerous temporal anomalies. It was a common method at the time because of the disapproval the novel genre was subject to.
Give us 'X' & 'Y'.

Fear are stupid! So are regrets!!

Yes, that's what she believed:"Fear is stupid! So are regrets!!" Asked to quit modelling, and either learn secretarial work or get married instead in the beginning of her career, she later emerged as the most successful American actor, model, singer and also one of the first women to own her own production company
Despite her extreme intelligence, she was often typecast as a dumb blonde. She helped to Ella Fitzgerald in becoming the First lady of Song.
She spent her childhood in an orphanage and at the age of 36, she committed suicide. By that time itself, she had gained enough fame. At the height of her fame, she wrote her autobiography, which was not published until a decade after her death. 
By what name does the world know her?

Physician turned Business Mangate

With the intention of becoming a physician, Y joined the University of Texas at Austin. While studying there, he started an informal business putting together and selling upgrade kits for personal computers. Later, he started company in his dormitory, naming it X. And surprisingly, by the time he turned 19, X had notched up enough success to prompt him to dropout. X is popular now-a-days with its new name. In 1992, aged 27, he became the youngest CEO of a company ranked in Fortune magazine's list of the top 500 corporations. Id 'X' and 'Y'.

*Looks like we have another Cersei*

Born in 1729, Sophie von Anhalt-Zerbst commomly known as 'Y' enjoyed numerous marital prospects due to her mother’s well-regarded bloodlines. Y and her new husband had a rocky marriage from the start. Though the young Prussian princess had been imported to produce an heir, eight years passed without a child. Some historians believe her husband was unable to consummate the marriage, while others think he was infertile. Desperately unhappy in their married lives, the husband and Y both began extramarital affairs, she with Sergei Saltykov, a Russian military officer. When Y gave birth to a son, Paul, in 1754, gossips murmured that Saltykov—not the husband—had fathered him. There is little debate over the paternity of Y’s three additional children. It’s believed that none of them were fathered by the husband. Give us 'Y'.

Lone Wolf

Name X.


X’s letters are often credited for initiating the 14th-century Renaissance in public affairs, humanism, and classical Roman culture. As the legend goes, X was being carried away on a litter (palanquin) when he was finally tracked down by Mark Antony’s men. He calmly ordered his men to put the litter down, and held his neck out to be cut in a gladiatorial gesture. His last eloquent words are said to be “There is nothing proper about what you are doing, soldier, but do try to kill me properly."

According to Cassius Dio, Antony's wife took X's head, pulled out his tongue, and jabbed it repeatedly with her hairpin in final revenge against X's power of speech.
