It’s CONTEST time again! YAY!
The winner may choose a FREE BOTTLE of perfume, from any of our 10 new releases this month! Choose between: Love Potion®: Winter Solstice 2008, Phero Girl: Dominance, Robin & Marian, Romeo & Juliet, Celestial Lust Dust, Dirty Sexy Seduction Potion, Hoodoo U Love?, Sweet Valentine, Jewel of the Regency, or Lover's Reunion 2008!
Here's the RULES:
1. You are trying to guess the identity of the famous person we have in mind.
2. You enter the game by asking three YES or NO (or A or B ) questions.
(Ex. Is this person male or female? Dead or alive? A scientist? A politician? A rock star?)
3. We'll post our answers as soon as we see your questions. (Once your previous questions have been answered, you can ask another 3 questions. You do not need to wait until the last person's questions are answered to ask some yourself - it's ok if the questions stack up.)
4. You can make a guess at the person's identity at any time, but only ONE GUESS, (not a list of names), then we'll answer it and move on.
5. You can only guess the answer if you've asked at least 3 questions yourself.
The whole contest is taking place on this board, you don't need to email, post everything here.
OK? GO!

How does a 15 year old know all these old actors???? Dad's helping you, right?

(Just teasing you!)
Congrats to you SugaredLinnea, on a game well played!!!!!!
What shall you claim as your prize?

Feb 2 2008, 11:00 PM

He did help a bit...is that fair? I thought Richard Burton, but he had died long before and I asked my dad who he thought and he said maybe Roddy? Cause we had just watched him a couple of days ago. I didn't know he had died.

I actually have a crush on him. It's sad all of these cool people I'd like to meet are gone. My dad told me some college has some tell-all book that he wrote that will expose all sorts of people but it can't be released until some far future time. Ooooohhh~~~ I wonder what it says~~~
Everyone should watch his Night Gallery episode!! It's really scary! It's the pilot episode and the Joan Crawford one kicks booty too! She's awesome. I'll see which to pick, and maybe you can hold on to it until you have the Lemon Bar perfume ready, so you can save on shipping?? I always like you guys to save some money if possible.

Yup, it's all about the monkey.

I know - these contests go by so FAST! I thought I had one that would take a little longer this time, but you all are too clever for me!

If you like Roddy, have you watched the Fright Night movies? He is in #1 and #2.....

I did too when I was a kid. I think it is because he always radiated a kid-friendly kindness on-screen, (when he wasn't playing THE DEVIL!!!) and off-screen, he was very concerned with the protection and rights of child actors - as he had been one himself.

I could wager a very good guess...
If this is true, I'd think he'd want to wait until everyone he was talking about had already passed on. He had a reputation of being 'everyone's friend, and no one's enemy' in Hollywood. He was very popular in the community, and if what I think would be in that book is ACTUALLY in that book, well, it would make him some enemies...and would be quite unlike him to release.

Yeah, I think he seems like a kind guy, and like he has a warm personality, kind of like David Tennant!
I hope the book comes out before I get too old to remember it, I'm just that nosy.

Congratulations Linnea!!! I just saw that this was up, I was reading through everything and I thought, "Whoa! First guess of all and she nailed it! Awesome!". I didn’t realize that he had passed either… I loved him
