All right, girls: the winner is…

March 15, 2008

… a guy.

One of two guys who entered. The other one, although a good sport for playing, totally crapped out. I know. I’m in shock, too.

So, Alan – you win. Congratulations. Since part of the prize is a rather girly piece of jewelry, I can either substitute something else or send it along for your spouse…

I’m very happy that so many played – a total of 17 entries, which is probably almost as many readers as this blog actually has.

Apparently, Waylon Jennings and Sean Bean were the least recognized, with a small but vocal minority (Mom and Polly) protesting that Jeremy Brett’s picture looked nothing like his most famous character, Sherlock Holmes. Aaryn guessed Eddie Rabbitt for #1, which I thought was pretty good, really – right era, right genre, wrong bearded guy.

Tomorrow I’ll post prize pictures; including the consolation offerings.

  1. If you were setting out to be deliberately deceptive with the Brett pic, you did a hell of a job. Your mother isn’t the only one who’s bent out of shape about it. I must’ve looked at 40 pictures of that %&$$* guy, and talked myself out of his name every time. So much for a new career in law enforcement, I guess.


  2. Dammit! I’m with Mom and Polly–I even IMDB’ed “Sherlock Holmes”, looked at pictures of Jeremy Brett and didn’t make the connection. Is that the only one I missed?


  3. Oh…I just got a little tingle. #7 swooning sam elliot. lord all mighty, now thats a fab specimin of a man. FOR SURE!@!!!
