From Wiki:

So there should be a reasonable opportunity to identify the guess, but the question can be asked in a tricky way so that the chooser might not make the connection until the answer is revealed (and the guesser gets a DQ).

Alas! I don’t listen to talk radio! You get a DQ.

OK. As a rule of thumb, I’m just going to try to include two details in every IQ.

Sean Hannity.

Direct: are you living now?

That’s sporting of you. But not necessary. :wink:

:smack: D’OH!

Yes, I’m living now.

Were you the voice of Winnie the Pooh?

No, I’m not Sterling Holloway.

Were you the original bandleader on “The Tonight Show”?

No, I’m not Skitch Henderson.

Were you “Movin’ on up to a deluxe apartment in the sky” ?

No, I’m not Sherman Hemsley.

Were you responsible for the sarcastic “7 strikes and you’re out” reference?

Argh! Political guy, right? I don’t know who you mean.

You get a DQ.

That was the late MLB pitcher Steve Howe.

DQ: Are you over 50 years old?

FYI: The “7 strikes” refers to how many times he was reinstated after being suspended from baseball on drug charges

Well then, I was way off.

I’m under the age of 50.
