Thanks, **SCAdian**. > [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > IQs: > > Did you both direct a movie and, in it, provide the voice of a person of the opposite sex from you? > Is one of KISS’s quietest songs about you? > Did you convert to another religion after leaving your high office? > [@etv78](#): > > **EH** -Not Chuck Greely (former governor who is a “gay American”) and converted to Anglicanism… Did you mean James McGreevey, former Governor of New Jersey? Neither he nor “Chuck Greely” are “Bs,” in any event. The first is Brad Bird, director _The Incredibles_, who also provided the voice of fashion designer Edna Mode in the movie. The KISS song is “Beth.” Tony Blair, who converted from Anglicanism to Catholicism. DQs: Best known for work on movies? Best known as a musician? Three DQs reserved. IQs: Did I meet you in October 2010 outside of Cleveland, Ohio? Were you a female hobbit named after a flower? Were you a heroic captain of the early U.S. Navy? ---

You still omitted “12. His medium is best seen” from post 255, and the facts that he’s under 60 and an American, from even earlier. I urge you to copy and paste the previous list of answered DQs _every time_, and just add to it. That way you won’t miss or drop any. > [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > IQs: > > Did I meet you in October 2010 outside of Cleveland, Ohio? > Were you a female hobbit named after a flower? > Were you a heroic captain of the early U.S. Navy? Barack Obama Belladonna Took William Bainbridge DQ: Painter or photographer? Five DQs now reserved. Any suggestions, sportsfans? IQs: Did your true love apologize for his ugly holiday sweater? Were you surprisingly forgiving of the guy who mutilated you? Did you keep a dented helmet in your office? ---
