21 -- what an awesome question! I'm afraid it has stumped me but do let me know what the reference is to -- you could combine this with asking me a second-order question.
23 - Second order question would be, perhaps, were you Caucasian? (Valentine McGillycuddy is one of the great names of American history; he was an Indian agent in the Dakotas, a friend of Crazy Horse's and an enemy of Red Cloud's.)
You guys are shining, I am dim. I find myself stumped by 32, 34 (which I should know dammit!), 35 (unless the answer is "no, I am not a red" -- but I don't think that works) and 37 (which ditto about ought to know it -- know it's a line from a movie, and maybe it's some Clint Eastwoody actor, but that's all.)
44 looks like a lyric to the song "15 tons" -- I'm not sure if it is or how that would fit in here; so I will go ahead and award LB a second-order question.
In re 37: I guess you're not Rowdy Roddy Piper (which is a stage name, so I counted it as an "R," but if you want to call me a Cheaty McCheatypants and not count it I won't object).
48 -- I am not Afro-American.
50 -- I'm not actually sure Rice went to Princeton. If she did not, you get a second order.
49 -- you get a second order.
She did not. I'm switching gears, though, because this possibility is way more fun than my previous hunch. Did your breasts once get another famous American in trouble?
I'm gonna stop asking now because I just realized my guess is still alive. Besides, other people are way better at asking funny questions. (Jane Russell)
78 -- wow, that is an awesome bit of knowledge to be in possession of. I was not a dancer of any sort, at least not publically or that Mr. Clownæ is aware of.
79 was Richard I. His pa, Henry II was married to Eleanor of Aquitane. (my high school had some great 1 week courses given on English royalty by an incredibly cool history teacher)
Years after Phase I of your committee's investigation into pre-war intelligence wrapped up, are you still "intending to complete Phase II in a timely manner"?
Tokyo Rose was already mentioned in the thread, but not in a context that was entitled to an answer. I'm just throwing that out in case people think she was eliminated.
Heh. That's a weird Botticelli problem that's come up before -- one tends to think that if a name has been mentioned and the game isn't over, then the name's eliminated. This is, however, not always the case.
But I never even said "I am not Tokyo Rose". According to the authoritative rules as laid down by T(itan)ia, I could have done so. But instead I said nothing about whether I was or was not TR.
154; Actually, the way I play, I would have ended the game back when you said you were thinking of Tokyo Rose, but I don't think there's a rule that handles the situation well.
And the letter is.... R!!!!

You're not Roger Rabbit. Were you a stage performer?

Scratch that! Missed the radio think. Did you have a noticable accent?

133--oops!
I'll try again....Were you an Asian-American?

139 -- Clownæ is going to plead ignorance here: he thinks I probably did have a noticable accent but he is not sure.

140 -- yup, I was Asian-American.

Did you adapt a French play about Spaniards whose sequel had already been adapted by an Austrian?

Tokyo Rose was already mentioned in the thread, but not in a context that was entitled to an answer. I'm just throwing that out in case people think she was eliminated.

143 stumps me. OFE gets a second-order.

Was your wife's horse named Buttermilk?

146 -- I'm not Rob Roy?

Rossini (Barber of Seville). OK, were you convicted of treason?

I think you're aiming for the right person, but you actually aren't Roy Rogers.
And are you Tokyo Rose?
Posted by LizardBreath | Link to this comment | 09-29-06 12:19 PM
Ack! That is to say Roy Rogers. Second-order for LB.

149 -- I am Tokyo Rose.
Posted by Clownæsthesiologist | Link to this comment | 09-29-06 12:20 PM
148 -- I was convicted of treason.

Heh. That's a weird Botticelli problem that's come up before -- one tends to think that if a name has been mentioned and the game isn't over, then the name's eliminated. This is, however, not always the case.

Aw, darn, I had no idea that the mechanics of the game didn't mean she'd been eliminated.

151 - Ok, it's Wikipedia time

But I never even said "I am not Tokyo Rose". According to the authoritative rules as laid down by T(itan)ia, I could have done so. But instead I said nothing about whether I was or was not TR.

154; Actually, the way I play, I would have ended the game back when you said you were thinking of Tokyo Rose, but I don't think there's a rule that handles the situation well.

I take it you didn't recognize the Walter Winchell fact, then?
Posted by redfoxtailshrub | Link to this comment | 09-29-06 12:43 PM
I did not.
Posted by Clownæsthesiologist | Link to this comment | 09-29-06 12:47 PM
Is anyone willing to lead another game? Or do I actually have to work for some of this afternoon?
