Today I saw this sign: Dairy Queen / An American Original. I'm not sure how Dairy Queen fits into the canon yet. It gets more complicated, SW.

I'm thinking of a bunch of people who arguably qualify for various reasons, and then again maybe not. I'm not coming up with the common thread that makes me think of them.
