103

IQ1: Were you and your husband executed for crime(s) related to espionage?

104

Yes! I am Ethel Rosenberg. My husband and I were the only American citizens executed during the Cold War for espionage; we went to the electric chair together in 1953 for selling atomic secrets to the Russians, though many think that I was innocent, and that my brother framed me to protect his wife.

105

Ah, good one. Well done, Tim!

106

… and I am F.

107

IQ1: Were you a monarch who composed flute sonatas and other music?

2xDQ, and I’m not Benjamin Franklin <“Hawkeye” Pierce>.

No fair, Volstagg doesn’t begin with an F! I’m blanking on the actually dashing one’s name, alas. DQ.
I’m not Fin Fang Foom, and DQ.

110

Volstagg is indeed dashing, but Fandral officially made it part of his moniker. Hogun went with “the Grim.” The last one is Irving Forbush.

DQ: Last name begin with F?

111

IQ1: Does a November 5 holiday in the UK commemorate you?

112

I am F:

  1. Real
  2. Last name begins with F
113

I’m not Guy Fawkes, nor Mallard Fillmore, nor Flash.

I don’t need to remember his last name, right? I mean, how many comic book characters named Flash could there be?

114

Frederick the Great. (I’m listening to one of his flute concerti right now.)
Philip Jose Farmer.
Correct.
DQ1: Real?
DQ2: Living?

115

I am F:

  1. Real
  2. Last name begins with F
    <I’m still Real>
  3. Dead

Please ask another DQ for the repeat.

Dammit. That was supposed to be:

IQ1: Male?

117

IQ1: Is a cage used to block electrical fields named after you?
IQ2: Are you a senator from Minnesota who used to perform on SNL?
IQ3: Are you just a sweet transvestite from Transexual, Transylvania?

118

IQs:

Did you write about Riverworld?
Did you play Atty. Douglas Wambaugh?
Did a Supreme Court justice say you had “a second-rate intellect but a first-rate temperament”?

119

I’m not Michael Faraday, Al Franken, or Dr. Frank N. Furter.

120

I’m still not Philip Jose Farmer, but at least this time I get to demonstrate that I know who he was. 2xDQ for the other two though.
