Damn. I can think of a lot of aliens that don’t have race names, but not ones with!
Does this count? The aliens from Aliens; The aliens from The Predator; The aliens from E.T.; the aliens from Close Encounters; the Tripod doods from WotW.
…20 minutes later…
OOH! The Vogons (HHGTTG); The Autobots and Decepticons (Transformers); Kryptonians (?!) (Superman). Good ones. +3 points
He wants to be a dentist. What an dope. OSTRACIZE HIM! Yep. +2 points
You were right to put 3pts on that question. Cuz I dunno. It was Tuttle. Captain Jonathan Tuttle when he “joined” the army with Hawkeye. -3 points for me
[QUOTE=Kat]
Which brings me to +12 points.

That Non SW/ST Alien Race one really was tougher than it looks (at least for me). That was GOOD. I think my ears are bleeding… oh no, silly me, that’s just cerebral fluid.
Three’s Company. Great. Now I got that goddam song in my head.
DAMN! I’ve only known it as “The Strip”! (sorry)
How cool would that be if I knew the Highway, but not the Strip… But I don’t. So it’s not.
…come and knock on my doooor… take a step that is newwww…

Dammit, man! I had such hope!
Yep
Yep
Haha! And, yep!
Las Vegas Boulevard! You could have guessed! sob

So, lessee. I gained four points, and then…I lost four points. Leaving me right back at -12. I’m not going to sleep well tonight.
What is the origin of / basis for my username? (2 pts.)
From which rock star did actress / burlesque artist Dita Von Teese recently file for divorce? (3 pts.)

I’m guessing it has something to do with the 3 Asmovian laws of robotics, invented by Issac Asimov. Or the Foundation series. Something Issac. (i hope)
Gawd. I dunno? Rod Stewart? But I know that’s wrong.
The One-Eyed Candy Man can. ::shivvers:: (and HA!)
I REALLY gave this some thought, but I think it’s one of those things that have to be pointed out to you (like Sequoia), otherwise you’ll never guueess.
VW? Unless you’re talking American companies? If so, then… GM?

You are correct, sir. I was just looking for a connection with Mr. Asimov.
Marilyn Manson, actually.
Heh…well done!
Probably just one of those bits of trivia I’ve held onto all my life for no good reason. “Bookkeeper” is what I was looking for.
VW is correct. The others were Mercedes-Benz and Jeep. One right guess and one wrong, so we’ll make this a wash.
Well, surprise surprise! You earned me 4 points and then cost me…4 points. If only I could have broken even with you on my first round of questions, I’d be in great shape!
