[QUOTE=astorian] No, I don’t live in a shoe, nor is my name Buster Brown [/QUOTE] I figured that one was a gimme, but I had to ask it…I’ve been sitting in a meeting for the last hour and a half and that name popped into my head and I thought, “That must be the answer!” I couldn’t wait to get out of the meeting and check the timeline. But when I finally got a chance to Google Buster Brown, I found that he debuted in 1902. Rats! I thought the character was older. ---

[QUOTE=Sternvogel] Would I find you around Sleepy Hollow? [/QUOTE] YES! Nice going. I am Brom Bones, Ichabod Crane’s rival for the affections of Katrina Van Tassel in Washington Irving’s short story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” I MAY also be the real Headless Horseman, though you’ll never get me to admit it. Good work, Sternvogel. ---

Thanks, **astorian**. Here’s the [new thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=9891677#post9891677) (which is actually a continuation of a challenge from last year, before **The Game Room** was around). ---

Dammit, I got back to this thread too late. As an aside, I was **also** Bugs Bunny (my question was a reference to “What’s Opera, Doc?” - I’m surprised **Biffy** didn’t notice. :)). ---

[QUOTE=astorian] I don’t know who this is off the top of my head (but will remember once you tell me)… [/QUOTE] The Funk Bros. bassist is Bob Babbitt. Ring a bell? Alas, I didn’t get to ask my next question, “Did you once play a hard-nosed Federal prosecutor who tried to mess with Paul Newman?” (Bob Balaban, in _Absence of Malice_). Congrats, **Sternvogel**!
