Fabulous Prize Announcement

Well, the response was terrifically underwhelming. But, it made one guy happy, and that is all that matters to me, because I really like this winner. With 43% correct, Sammy Waller has won the "Guess some of Rick's favorite actors" game from the 10/19/09 edition of DLmail. Way to go Sammy. For his fantastic 3 for 7 effort, he will be awarded the following. One hot chocolate drink and...(this is big)...he gets to sit by me at the IVC vs. Limestone football game tonight. Now I bet many of you are thinking that you blew it, missed your chance. Well, you did. Sorry. The spoils go to Sammy.


For those of you who were so stumped that you couldn't even guess one, here are the answers.



Before Nicolas Cage sold out and got really famous, he starred as H.I. McDunnough in the classic, Raising Arizona.

Everyone knows this is Bill Murray as Carl Spackler from Caddyshack.

Really, this one I admit was tough. You will be relieved to know it's Ben Stiller as Derek Zoolander in yet another classic, uh, Zoolander. I only know of one guy in real life that can strike this pose.












Ok, so this one was as tough as Zoolander, maybe, but the dog nose was a huge hint. It's Mr. Jamie Lee Curtis, Christopher Guest, writer and one of the characters (Harlan Pepper) of Best In Show.

This had to be just about the easiest one next to Carl Spackler. Paul Newman, Cool Hand Luke.

This one is probably hard for a couple of reasons. Bill Murray was already used once in this quiz and the movie, while a classic, has likely only been watched by me and Brett Mellen. But we have each seen Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou several times, so the movie I suppose can be considered a mild success. This pic is of Bill as Steve Zissou.











The final actor was as easy as, if not easier than Carl or Luke...George Clooney as Everett in Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? A serious classic.
