Do any of you hear Alfalfa singing, “I’m the barber of Seville” when you read that title?

62

Somehow I get the feeling it’s gonna be just you and me on that one.

The guitarist in the band I jam with knew him, or rather his father did, and he was just telling me a story about him the other night – so it was fresh in my head.

  12. Since I don’t think anyone knows who did the Venus de Milo

ETA: I’ll leave this up, even though it appears I’m too late. Well, at least I’m not going to be dumped in the basement again.

Oh my freaking god a perfect game!!!

Woooo hooooooooooooooooooooooo

76

:rolleyes: At least I was in the top 50%… anyhoo, thanks for another fun Feud!

77

It looks like we need to broaden our ballet and sculpture horizons a little. :slight_smile:

78

My first top 5…Missed Swan Lake Mozart, and Picasso. Funny that Mozrt is the most popular composer, but his symphonies are not. Off to hear Mozart’s music.

79

Well, I’m glad I didn’t put my answers in fast enough for this one. I would have done miserably.

I’m trying to think of why this would be different from how I normally do…

Next time!

It’s over. Never mind.
