No, Jerod... this is the most confusing way ever (note: theMeaningOfLife is
declared elsewhere):

var array = new Array();
function adamSandler(georgeCostanza) {
var whatTheF = 42;
array[-whatTheF + theMeaningOfLife] = georgeCostanza;
}
var ryanSeacrest = isTodayTuesday() ? 41234522 : 0;
while (!davidHasselhoff) {
adamSandler(funkyTown(ryanSeacrest)); //where is this funkyTown method?? I
want someone to take me to funkyTown! Won't you take me to funkyTown?
}

Agreed?

(yes, i'm tired atm)
