If the comedy stuff doesn't work out, Mike Myers says he'd love to work in a dry, factual place.

"If I couldn't do what I do now, I'd want to be a programmer for The History Channel," said Myers, who made it onto Entertainment Weekly's second annual It List."I'm an addict. I think I was an RAF pilot shot down in 1941 in a previous life . . . You think I'm kidding," Myers told the magazine.

Myers, who wowed the crowds as "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery," next stars as club promoter Steve Rubell in the, um, historic tale of Studio 54.
