Whoops! Sorry I forgot about this thread guys. Yeah, the two correct answers are **silenus** for Terry Pratchett and **Dung Beetle** for Stephen King. There’s still some outstanding, if anyone is interested… Wilco Alien Ant Farm Brad Renfro Aerosmith Madonna American Idol MLB’s Blue Jays Order of the Stick xkcd – for this one, can I guess the entire Doper population? 😛 Battlestar Galactica and for good measure, I’ll add one more: the Steelers ---

Let’s see… Yup, I had both **Airman Doors** and **The Mad Hermit** (who used to be Steelerphan) in mind. Also, I’m pretty sure you spelled **KungFuLola** right, so good job! And of course, **Liberal** is spot on for AI. Okay, that leaves: Wilco Alien Ant Farm Brad Renfro Aerosmith Order of the Stick xkcd Battlestar Galactica Ace Young William Shakespeare Anyone else wanna give this a shot? Like I said, as long as you don’t kill any hamsters, searching should be okay. ---
