Post a picture of someone famous who may be known better by name or deed, rather than by their face.

For example:

Have no idea. I'm bad with people - faces/names.

I don't want to be a kill joy...but just for everyone to be aware....

After ros people were identified (before looking at Hilary's name I thought is was birdeye...I think that was a darn good guess) I right clicked to see if they were identified in properties....

ros is so smart, they weren't (took wells off of image shack)

so....I'm going to admit to something here...if you wanted to be a cheat, you would be able to see who my person is, but if you do check....please don't post the name as a guess.

Let's be on the honor system now.

Great thread, Ros, but I think it would be a good idea to provide a clue. What's the point in cheating? It takes all the challenge out of the game.

I thought about providing clues every time, but I also remember how good Walter and Francis are at the "where am I" game, so I thought I would start with no clues and see how easy it is to play. If it's too difficult, then by all means, provide clues.

I've seen that guy before, but I can't place him. You say he's a scientist... what area of research did he cover?
