[QUOTE=Enginerd] Cool - thanks! DQ: Are you currently serving in an elected office? [/QUOTE] I have to fudge with an “I don’t know” so you can ask another DQ (My hunch is “Yes” but I’m just not sure.) ---

[QUOTE=Enginerd] DQ’: Have you ever held a Federal office?

[QUOTE=Johnny L.A.] Trying to zero in on the ‘federal office’ thing… DQ: Have you been the head of a department or administration such as the U.S. Postal Service or the Federal Aviation Administration? [/QUOTE] No to these specific offices – to my knowledge, which I will count as an “I don’t know” as far as other “Federal offices” go. So you can have another DQ. ---

[QUOTE=Zeldar] If you mean Tommy Leonetti (we could argue about “popular”) then no. Believe it or not, I almost went with him but decided he would be too obscure. I only know of him by way of the old _Your Hit Parade_ and figured that was not a good choice for the Doper crowd I know about. If you’re thinking of another such person, try a diffferently worded IQ, please. No DQ yet. [/QUOTE] IQ: Were two of your hits _La Bamba_ and _If I Had a Hammer?_ Edit: Oh well. It’s Trini Lopez. ---

I need to step out for a bit, but I’ll be back shortly. If someone wants to start a new game, that’s fine. Otherwise I’ll throw out **JW**. ---
