I thought I would start this topic up here. It seems to generate a lot of interest at the defunct SFV http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
I guess I'll start...
I was the one of the men who warned that the British were invading Boston. I made a living out of Copper.
Could you perhaps be the original Midnight Rider, Paul Revere?
Well Revere is wrong anyway. He was a silversmith, not copper. That'll teach me to read half the question before posting...lol.
The other two riders were William Dawes and Samuel Prescott. Prescott was the only one to make it to Concord, but he was a physician, so, by process of elimination, I'm going to guess Dawes, since I have no idea what he did for a living. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
And I see Nommy has gone to Maine, so I guess we won't find out till next week! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif
Did you know that Paul Reverer was arrested before he got out of Boston and hence never made the ride he is famous for? One of these days I'll remeber his name. Sorry
LOL, yup, thirty lashes with a wet noodle for him!
Nommy,
Was the answer right?
<font size="-2">Pssssst.....Feather Head! I wonder if he really knows...I betcha he's just trying to get the correct answer from one of us so he can win a contest or something.</font> http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif

I WIN I WIN! Thanks to all for letting me winn 200,000 dollars (Yeah right).
OK, well...I was wrong...but I saw a collection of copper things made by Revere. (Ever heard of Revere wear?)
Anyway..It was Revere that I was thinking of. Guess it could have been a trick question.
I couldnt find any "quick" answers on William Dawes
So what you're saying is Cosmic won. Take it away, CT!

<font size="-2">*Grumble* I swear...ya don't look in on the board for a few hours (well, ok...ALL DAY!) and somebody waltzes in like they own the place and takes over...SHEESH! *Grumble*</font> http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif

CT, I wasn't sure if you could take time out of Valen torture, so I jumped right in!
Ery, she didn't ask you if that was your final answer so it doesn't count. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
Hey Azziz, do you think I should list "Valen Torture" on my resume? It's one of my better skills. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/eek.gif
Hehe...I still know the answer and I still ain't tellin'!

I don't need to drink to have a good time. I need to drink to shut out these voices in my head.
Well, hmm, it's been a little while since I've done this but here goes.
Although I got a lot of early career help from someone not respected, I certainly get plenty of respect myself now.
Rodney Dangerfield?
AsIs ..I think the person your looking for got "help" from Rodney. Hmmm....Whos that guy running the Tonight Show now?
Clue #2
I have to take a janitorial job in my teen years. Because of this I ended up dropping out of school.

Jim Carey??
Clue #4
Before my career really took off, I starred in a campy vampire movie.

No takers??
Ok...I also played a man torn between two women...one who is dying and another I can't marry for monetary reasons.
Never seen Coronation Street, but I'm gonna take a WAG and guess. Linus Roache?
Bingo...
Linus Roache played the gay priest, Father Greg, in the controversial film, Priest (which I highly recommend btw).
Take it away, Cosmic.
Will post something tomorr...er, later today...I gotta go to bed! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
One of my first jobs was selling guidebooks at Disneyland.
Being among the musicians, the magicians, and the actors that made Disneyland the attraction it is, changed my life.
