What am I, chopped liver? (Note this was posted well before **Evil Death** flubbed his line)

Efrem Zimbalist Jr.

(just because I can’t believe Audrey Hepburn is in play, and I don’t think any of us can handle another series of mishaps like page 5)

Sorry, didn’t make it to the last page – obviously. I’ll go find **Evil Death** now.

Your entry was “rolled back” in the fix from the last page. Afterwards, Alan Arkin was then put back into play, and was matched with a different movie.

Therefore, Efrem Zimbalist, Jr. is the correct play right now. So I’ll go with …

**Hot Shots!**

**Maureen** , thanks for taking one for the team.

At this point in the game, we really all have to double-check our entries against prior pages. An Advanced Search against Cafe Society doesn’t take long if you limit it to entries over the past week with 200+ posts.

Anyway, on to the game:

Pat Morita
