[QUOTE=Dead Cat]
IQs: Were you Iron Maiden’s original lead singer?
Have you used the pen names Richard Phillips, Jack Dowland, and Horselover Fat?
[/QUOTE]
Not Paul Day (I was a Seventies/Eighties metalhead once!)
I don’t know the author who used those pseudonyms. Ask a DQ… unless…
“Dick” is a nickname for Richard, so… is that Philip Dick again?
[QUOTE=Elendil’s Heir]
Did you serve in the California legislature after the death of your husband, the incumbent?

I don’t know this one- ask a DQ

“Horselover Fat” has always cracked me up. (It’s “Philip[pus]” and “Dick” translated from the Greek and German, respectively.)
Are you a now-politically incorrect caricature of a homosexual poet?
Are you the “Man from Atlantis”?

Pauline Davis.
DQ: Were you born in Europe?
Did you write an autobiography detailing what a prick your politician father was?
Also, the original singer from Iron Maiden was Paul Di’Anno, not Paul Day - does that mean Dead Cat gets a DQ?

I assume you mean Patti Davis, Reagan’s daughter.
If Paul Day was not the original singer, I guess Dead Cat is entitled to another DQ. Bruce Dickinson was the only one I ever paid much attention to, anyway.
Were you the first guitarist for a handy group?

Good work! I thought I searched the thread for Philip Dick before I asked the question, but I may have missed it, sorry. And Paul Day was the name I was going for, so I won’t take a DQ.

“Handy”? Not Badfinger… okay, I’m missing the pun. I’ll groan later.
Ask your DQ
