Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly TRIAD: only for serious mindbending!

None of them ever married?

I don't know. I checked it out and Natalie Schafer was married from 1934 to 1942. In checking out Mabel Albertson, one site states it is not known if she married or had children, but other sites state she was Cloris Leachman's real life mother-in-law, which she could only be if she had children (although she could still never had married).

Long story short, that is not the link.

They were all supporting actresses on sitcoms.

Yes they were but that is not the link that I have for them.

They all appeared on the Loretta Young Show?

Hmm apparently they all did. I think I will give it to you, Lightning Lad. The link I had was that they all appeared in the Lucille Ball/Desi Arnaz movie "Forever, Darling". So, the link of them all appearing oin the same show/movie is established. I caught the movie the other night in TCM.

And for those who don't know Mabel Albertson was best known for playing Darrin's Mother Phyllis Stevens on Bewitched.

See also played Dick Van Dyke's mother on The New Dick Van Dyke Show. And all three did appear in Forever Darling as well as various incarnations of the Lucy Show.

Next Triad:

Raymond Bailey
Amanda Bearse
Gale Gordon

They all played bankers in sitcoms?

I figured that might be an easy one. You got it RL.

How about:

Charlie Brown
Lyndon Johnson
Me (John)

You have last names that are amongst the 10 most common in America?

Nope. My last name is actually quite unusual.

You all own/owned beagles

Yeah. I figured this would be an easy one too. If a hint was needed, I was going to add that we all have this in common with another Legion Worlder who lives in the same state I do (Beagz, of course).


For the record:

CB: Snoopy (of course)
LBJ: Him, Her and Edgar
Me: Hyfrydol (aka, Hyvvie the Wonder Beagle)

Your turn, Quis.

Hmm ok let me think.........


Howard Hughes
Howie Mandel
Joan Crawford

All had or were suspected of having OCD?

I was going for mysophobia (the fear of germs) but seeing as that leads to OCD you got it.

Another one that's not human beings:

Virginia
Samoa
Yemen

They are all places that have, at some point, been partitioned into multiple entities with a cardinal direction in the name of at least one of the units.

You've just about got it...a little hint...there's a reason my Triad doesn't include Dakota or Korea.

Hmm.

Virginia has "West" and plain ol' Virigina. Samoa has "American" and "Western". Yemen was North and South, but they were more like east and west of each other.

So, is it that they were divided where one entity was west of the other?

Not what I meant, but what the heck, let's get this game moving on...

What I was really looking for was that the named entities have or had two portions, one of which was designated by direction...and the other was not. West Virginia's other isn't East Virginia, it's just plain Virginia. Western Samoa (now known just as Samoa, but the "Western" usd to be official)'s other isn't Eastern, but American. And North Yemen's other was never officially called South Yemen, it was just plain Yemen.

You take the next one, Rockhopper.

I did not know that. I always thought it was South Yemen. Oh well. You learn something new every day.

Okay:

Berlin
Florida
Peru

You could also have added Holland and Wales to that list.

They are all towns in Massachusetts.

And back up to you, Quis.
