Tired of Quizzes?
If you are tired of the guessing game, ignore this post.
If not, here we go:
I'm not gonna give you his birth date, 'cause I know you'd be like me and go see who was born that year... and that would be a dead give-away for this guy.
But it IS a guy, and I'll give ya a minor clue: He served in the Army during 1944 and '45.
PT pulled it out of her hat... how, I don't know.
I had all sorts of great clues to give ya:
You may have crossed a bridge named in his honor- (on the State line over the Wabash 'twixt Vincennes and Illinois.)
Born in Vincennes.
Dad was a circus clown.
Gave Johnny Carson his first big break.
Wow PT... I'm impressed.

Audie Murphy?
Jimmie Stewart?
How about a quiz with famous Vandy Kids?
I have one: who among Vandy's Kids received a patent related to alternative energy that could help us become less dependent of foreign oil?
OMG!!!!!
I cannot see this picture either!
GB, help.
I wanna play, too.
still can't see the pic, but is he still alive?
Not much to see right now anyway, Joker. I've smudged the image, and will try to sharpen it as we go along here.
Second clue:
He IS a "show business" personality...
it is NOT Jimmie Stewart.
It is NOT Audie Murphy.
I am taking guessses without a pic. None have been opening for me lately. Sorry
Red Skelton?
For sure it is NOT John Wayne nor Frank Sinatra,,, don't get me started!!
Ok, no picture to go by, don't know if he's dead or alive.
All I have is: he's a show biz personality and was in WW2.
ummmm....Jerry Lewis?
Is it Clark Gable?
Asoka, Class of 65? Earlier or later? BioFuels? Currently residing in Northern Indiana? Someone that we would know, but haven't been in contact with for several years? If the answers are Yes, Skip, Yes, Yes and Yes.... I may be close.... But, I have been close before and close only counts in Horseshoes....
Later than class of 65 and was the class valedictorian. Currently residing in California. Patent related to solar energy. Nobody "famous", just a CGHS graduate who did something I thought was notable... ummm.... 'cuz I don't have a patent!
I can't see the photo either so I'm guessing here. Would it be John McCain, Sr.?
George Formby?
Eddie Albert?
Ernest Borgnine?
Telly Savalas?
Any more hints?
Red Skelton, of course
I'm pretty impressed too! ;)
It was the hairline that made me think of him.
Do it again! I love these quizes.
If I was a gambling person (AND I AM) I would say this wonderful actor, comedian, AND ARTIST is
RED SKELTON
He did the most fantastic clown acts, his park bench antics were great. He has become known as a very famous artis of clowns that have been displayed in some of the top gallaries.
One of his best routines was when he would run his hands through his hair making it stand on end and do his Gertrude and Heclips (not sure of the spelling on last name) they were birds and he would put his hands up under his arm pits and flap his arms like wings.
