I went with Jack Hanna Barbera because everyone knows that Jack Hanna from the Columbus Zoo was famous for his ability to solve intractable problems like the Gordian Knot.

I was close - Alexander the Great Wazoo.

For MD2Q1, I put "Don Gordian Knotts."

But I'm proudest of my answer to MD2Q5: "Clarence Thomas the Tank Engine."

I see your Clarence Thomas the Tank Engine and raise you a "William Casey Jones".

Just saw this. I *totally* put down Alexander the Great Kazoo. Just like yesterday I put Steak and Shake your Booty.

I went with that. The same day, I also went with No, No, American Idiette instead of Tea For Two Gentlemen Of Verona.

The two best ones I've thought of so far: Fantasy Island of Dr. Moreau for the Ricardo Montalban question, and DJ Jazzy Jeff Carter for the Stanley Cup MVP question.

I was as pleased as you can be with a wrong answer for my MD5Q1 "Brady Anderson Silva". For someone who knows almost nothing about UFC, I thought that was pretty well reasoned.

That's better than Ken Griffey Junior Jones. Knowing nothing about fighting sports, I figured Junior Jones sounds like a fighter...and I was correct. A secondary boxer back in the '70s. Also, looking back at it, Brady bloody Anderson hitting 50 homers should have been a clue about steroid use.

I went with Ken Griffey Junior Mints.

You may have noticed that I have not been tagging any Best Wrong Answers for the B&A ML. The reason, as may be obvious given this thread and others, is that there are just too many. Plus, I may send them back to Mr. Katz with the hope that he'll agree to a B&A 2 in the future (not that I expect he needs any suggestions or material).

So, keep sharing!

I, for one, would totally set my DVR for "Margaret Mitchell and Mindy."

On Day 3, for the question about the Rock Musical and a song that purported to be about baseball, having no idea I entered "Jersey Boys Keep Swinging".

I was similarly pleased with my guess of "Jeff Kent Shamrock."
