Botticelli Round 22 -- Unfinished Business

Thread Games
1

Since nobody ever correctly determined the identity of CS in this thread from last year, I thought I’d revive it and see if the mystery is finally solved.

To sum up, CS:

Is not alive

Was not involved in politics

Was in show business, but never physically appeared on television, not primarily known for movies, nor the host of a show, nor known as a musician, a magician, or someone who worked behind the camera

Was American

Was male

Did not die after 1980
Is not Carl Sagan, Carl Sandburg, Carl “Alfalfa” Switzer, Carlos Santana, Carly Simon, Carrie Snodgress, Casey Stengel, Cat Stevens, Charles Schulz, Charles Starrett, Charlie Sexton, Charlie Sheen, Charlotte Simmons, Chloe Sevigny, Chris Sarandon, Chris Schenkel, Chris Stevens, Christian Slater, Chuck Schumer, Clarence “Pinetop” Smith, Clement Studebaker, Colonel Sanders, Connie Stevens, Craig Slocum, Craig Stevens, Curtis Sliwa, Curtis Strange, Cybill Shepherd

2

Did Liam Neeson hook up with you at the end of “Love, Actually”?

3

Are you the heaviest active pitcher in Major League Baseball?

4

Did you recently pass Bill Gates to become the wealthiest man on Earth?

5

I’m not, but I assume you mean Curt Schilling. If not, ask a DQ.

astorian: No, I’m not Claudia Schiffer. And though I read about that guy who recently overtook Gates, I can’t think of his name, so you get a DQ.

6

Mexican cement king Carlos Slim.
Were you still working in your profession after 1950?

7

Not Schilling but C.C. Sabathia (weighing in at a hefty 290 pounds).

Were you born in the 20th Century?

8

Was your body once inhabited by the mind of George Burns?

9

Are you famous for your bloody sock? :slight_smile:

10

Are you known for your loony tunes?

11

Are you a purveyor of extremely inexpensive wine?

12

Were you announcer and sidekick on Magic Johnson’s short-lived talk show?

13

No. And to Kid_A: I was not born in the twentieth century. I’m also still not Curt Schilling (unless you have another Bloody Red Sock in mind).

astorian: I’m not Craig Shoemaker, but I don’t know whose body was inhabited by George’s mind. DQ opportunity knocks.

Biffy: I’m guessing from the spelling that you mean “crazy songs”, as opposed to “Warner Brothers cartoons”. However, I can’t think of anyone who fits the description, so you also get a DQ.

Darryl: No, I’m not Charles “Two-Buck Chuck” Shaw.

I do have to log off in a few minutes, so I’ll see if we’re any closer when I return to the computer tomorrow afternoon.

14

Charlie Schlatter’s body was inhabited by George Burns’ mind in the movie “18 Again”

DQ: Did you work in theatre?

15

Was Colleen Dewhurst your mom?

16

I was thinking of both–WB cartoon composer Carl Stalling.

I think my intended DQ was just covered by astorian so…uh…Are you a vaudeville performer?

17

Were you the young pretender?

18

Gah, never mind… Gotta think some more.

19

Are you an amphibious basketball player?

20

Do you like to help people out with their stock portfolio?
