Sneaky! :mad: My surname starts with ‘B’. I just got out of bed. The only name that came to mind was Andy Griffith, who played folk-singer ‘Lonesome’ Rhodes. (I just watched _A Face In The Crowd_ the other day.) But obviously that’s wrong. Ask a DQ. 1. I am female. 2. I am not fictional. 3. I am American. 4. I am not an actress. 5. I am not a musician. 6. I am not a writer. 7. I was born in the 20th Century. 8. I am dead. 9. My surname starts with ‘B’. ---

I always have to think about that. Bob Balaban played a prosecutor in _Absence of Malice_, an impresario in _A Mighty Wind_, and a computer whiz in _2010_. DQ: Alive in 1950? IQ: Did a potential rival muse that it might be fun to travel around with you, making public appearances together?
