> I have an idea for a feud, although it may be too simple, or have been done before. How about “Give the actor or actress their second name?” Many performers have exotic names but this would be for those with common names. We’d see who’s thought about first when they hear it.
> 
> I’d probably score poorly, because I’d be thinking most likely of older actors or actresses. Kids these days!

_ **Read all the Rules!** _

_ **DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS** _

Try to think of the most popular answer, to get the most people matching you. Scoring - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points.

_ **READ THIS!!!** _

**Write your answers like this** ; Do not repeat the questions, no periods at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. If you need to comment or clarify your answers, do it AFTER the list of answers. Thanks.  
JUST LIKE THIS:

**1. answer  
2. response  
3. rejoinder**

If this format is ignored, our resident bouncer **Brujaja** will come in and kick your ass!

The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at 4:30 PM Central on Tuesday, 7/08/08 whichever comes first. Good luck!

Maybe later you can come over and we can listen to my Shaun Cassidy records and read Tiger Beat. Then we can ask Mom to drive us to the skating rink.
