Actually, I rather like those sorts of questions. I can't answer them, but I find it interesting when someone does.

bluecuracao 09-11-2006 06:31 PM

How about this one:

Name the very famous rock 'n' roll artist, whose sister had a small part in Fast Times At Ridgemont High and also starred in Sleepaway Camp II and III.

JayMcGee 09-11-2006 07:04 PM

TBH, those films have not yet appeared on Film Four - The Essential List....

bluecuracao 09-14-2006 06:16 PM

The answer is: Bruce Springsteen

His actress sister is Pamela Springsteen.

(googled) That looks like the UK version of Netflix. :worried:

Spexxvet 09-18-2006 01:54 PM

Whose turn?

mrnoodle 09-18-2006 02:37 PM

I wanna go!

The Coalition of the Willing is a band composed of Andras Simonyi, Hungarian Ambassador to the United States; Alexander Vershbow, US Ambassador to South Korea; Daniel B. Poneman, formerly of the United States National Security Council and now of The Scowcroft Group; Lincoln Bloomfield, former United States Assistant Secretary of State for Political Military Affairs;

and who?

Griff 09-18-2006 02:41 PM

Osama bin Laden

Spexxvet 09-18-2006 03:08 PM

Margaret Thatcher?
Tony Curtis?
BB King?

Griff 09-18-2006 03:49 PM

Darn it was Tony Curtis. Your turn!

mrnoodle 09-19-2006 10:58 AM

Eh, mine's too trivial. Jeff Baxter, formerly of Steely Dan and the Doobie Bros.

Someone else do one.

Undertoad 09-19-2006 10:59 AM

Jeff Baxter is also known by a nickname, what is it?

Spexxvet 09-19-2006 12:50 PM

THEEEE Bax?
Turdman?

barefoot serpent 09-19-2006 01:04 PM

Snakefinger?

Flint 09-19-2006 05:40 PM

Jeff "Skunk" Baxter

Next: Who does he work for now?

Edit: (In his new career...)

Undertoad 09-19-2006 06:34 PM

correct

Spexxvet 09-19-2006 07:47 PM

UNICEF?

Flint 09-19-2006 07:58 PM

It occurs to me, there's no telling what (all) this guy is into. But I have one particularly surprising job in mind.

Elspode 09-19-2006 08:04 PM

Promisekeepers?

Crimson Ghost 09-19-2006 11:43 PM

NASA

Flint 09-20-2006 11:15 AM

I was going for the Pentagon, but NASA is also correct. (We're not making this up, folks. Jeff "Skunk" Baxter from Steely Dan, Doobie Brothers is a super-genius!)

Crimson Ghost, take it away!

Undertoad 09-20-2006 11:34 AM

From his Wiki entry
Quote:

Baxter, entirely on his own, researched and wrote a five-page paper using a primitive Tandy computer that suggested converting the ship-based anti-aircraft Aegis missile into a rudimentary missile defense system. He gave the paper on a whim to another California friend, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher. No one was more surprised than Baxter when the Republican lawmaker took the paper seriously.

It turned out that Baxter knew what he was talking about. The converted Aegis missile defense did well in tests and the Navy planned to equip at least one ship with the newly converted system. But Rohrabacher was impressed with Baxter himself as well. "Skunk really blew my mind with that report," he was quoted as saying. "He was talking over my head half the time, and the fact that he was a rock star who had basically learned it all on his own was mind-boggling."

Crimson Ghost 09-21-2006 12:50 AM

I found out on "Behind The Music".

Question -
What group released the songs "Mangled Dehumanization" and "Remorseless Poison"?

Ibby 09-21-2006 03:37 AM

OK, maybe this one is a little easier.

Who is "Diane DiPiazza"?

Beestie 09-22-2006 01:06 AM

Mike Piazza's transvestite alias?

Crimson Ghost 09-22-2006 03:25 AM

Oooooooooooooooo...

So close...

Flint 09-22-2006 10:12 AM

Al DiMeola's schizophrenic alter ego?

Spexxvet 09-22-2006 01:14 PM

Easy. She is Diane of the pizza.

Crimson Ghost 09-22-2006 10:20 PM

Ok, maybe it was too hard of a question.

Diane DiPiazza was the original bassist for punk band The Misfits.
(02/1977 - 03/1977)

What actress has sung with Gene Simmons of KISS and Bette Midler?

Beestie 09-22-2006 11:46 PM

Cher?

Crimson Ghost 09-24-2006 01:25 AM

OK.
It's not Cher.

Answer:
Katey Segal.

I'll need to go even easier....

Who wrote "Constipation Blues"?

Crimson Ghost 09-24-2006 05:54 PM

On further research, I must retract my question.
Beestie is correct.
Cher has, in fact, sung with both Gene Simmons and Bette Midler.

Your turn, Beestie.

If you call what she does "singing." :right:
OK, nobody yell at me. I like Cher, I think she has done some great acting. Just can't stand that voice.

Beestie 09-25-2006 11:50 AM

It's Cat Stevens, and his Islamic name is Yusuf Islam.

Elspode 09-25-2006 07:08 PM

Dude is about to release a new album of pop music, and may tour.

'bout fuckin' time, that.

footfootfoot 09-25-2006 07:48 PM

See? I'd always heard Cat Stevens changed his name from Steven Katz.

I was thinking "Jay Mohr? You mean that ventriloquist guy?" I had to google to see that I was way off!
