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

Question: Early Girl the tomato variety?

Yes.

Okay, well, nobody seems interested in pursuing this, so the answer is:

All three are varieties of tomatoes. (I've seen a picture of the Ultra Boy tomato and it's the same colour as his shirt, and the green stem-leaf part is a reasonable stand-in for the green dragon logo. I can't help but think that it was intentional on the part of the tomato people, or, depending on when the variety was isolated, on the part of the Legion artist.)

Next:

Driver's Seat by Sniff 'n the Tears
Pink Cadillac by Bruce Springsteen
Little Red Corvette by Prince

(and, no, it's not that they're car songs. There's something else.)

They all reference things happening on "Saturday Night"

That is right. (Sorry to take so long getting back to this.)

Go ahead.

Wow... I totally forgot about this thread... OK... a wild tangent, but something I recently heard:

Jon-Erik Hexum
George Clooney
Kato Kaelin

A hint... there's just something about that girl.

Pee Wee saw it.

Married to someone named Mary?

No, but you're on the right track with the romantic angle.

Another hint: I came across this triad while researching cartoon voice actors.

They all dated actress Elizabeth (E.G.) Daily.

Bingo.

Ms. Daily (these days a voice actress) was one of my childhood crushes after I saw her in Valley Girl and Pee Wee's Big Adventure. Apparently others felt the same as, in addition to the three listed above, she also dated Nick Cage and Andrew Dice Clay. She is nothing if not... um... eclectic in her tastes.

You're up next, He Who.

Next:

Walter Koenig
Gary Burghoff
Ron Palillo

They all played characters much younger than their actual age?

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winnah!

Koenig was 31 when he started playing the 22-year-old Ensign Chekov on "Star Trek" in 1967.

Burghoff was 29-36 when he played the 19-20 (or so) Radar O'Reilly during the "M*A*S*H" TV series from 1972-79. (Of course, Burghoff also played Radar in the 1970 movie, when the actor was a mere 27).

Pallilo was 26 when he started playing the high school-aged Arnold Horshack in "Welcome Back, Kotter," in 1975.

Take it away, AFOB!

Sorry for the delay-I never thought I'd get it!

Daisy May Moses
The Baldwin Sisters
Hawkeye Pierce and BJ Hunnicutt

they all made moonshine?

Well that was hard, wasn't it?

Daisy May Moses, better known as Granny on The Beverly Hillbillies , who had the still out by the cement pond; The Baldwin Sisters from The Waltons who made their "Recipe" for medicinal purposes only, and Hawkeye and BJ of M*A*S*H who had their own still in the "swamp."

Take it Kent.

Cerebus
Elvis Presley
Oprah Winfrey

Taking a guess (expecting it to be wrong): Hounds

Cerebus is named after Cerberus, the three headed hound of hell

Elvis had the sone I Ain't Nothing But a Hound Dog

Oprah - I don't know

nope, but good effort.

also- part of what you brought up does factor into the correct answer.

I know Elvis and Oprah were, I don't know about Cerebus, but I'll guess that all are from Mississippi?

nope. It's more a name thing than anything else.

Their names are all mis-spelling of other names???

basically, that's it.
The Elvis portion had to do with the whole Aron/Aaron middle name bit.

go, Quis!

Lois Lane
Commissioner Gordon
Aunt May
