Close on question #4, but no cigar.

Question #9 is correct. The slogan was invented by Phil based on the contents of the suicide note. The note said something like, "I can't stand living in this crummy city anymore. So, I'm casting one last vote to put that scummy worm Feilding into office. Feilding and this city deserve each other."

Keep thinking on the rest of them.

JNoc · 02-04-2006, 04:51 AM

Here are the remaining ones that I know. Or sort of know in the case of #10!

2. Jack Elliot (Elliott?)
6. La Traviata
10. Pink lightbulbs and records by someone I don't know!

nitcrt1 · 02-04-2006, 09:30 AM

You've gotten 2,6 and half of ten.

Keep picking at it guys. You're doing great.

You still need the answers to #4 and the other half of #10.

McFly121 · 02-04-2006, 02:13 PM

I'd never get the others, but my only other guess on #4 is that he didn't want to go to Florida??

In the same breath as the Nani Darnell post, Vaughn Monroe was an early big band singer with a unique baritone voice. According to one site, his crooning was thought to bring couples together which makes his reference in "Her Honor" that much funnier.
