TRIVIA QUESTION 01/16/10
Posted Saturday, January 16, 2010 01:40 PM

An Oscar-winning actress has a much-loved pet who shares a name with one of our classmates - not only the first name but also the last name of our classmate.  The classmate is one who has joined our web site.

Name the classmate and also the actress.

Hi, Shirley.

    Thanks for guessing.  No, it is not Sandy Lenzi.  I think it is pretty unusual for an animal to have both a first and last name, but this animal was given both names.  I really can't say that the actress actually knows our classmate, but she gave her pet the first and last names of one of our classmates.  Thanks for participating.  Guess again if you want.

Hi, Gary.

    Nope, it is not Francis Geyer.  I have posted the answer in the announcements on the Home Page.  Click on Home Page in the blackboard-looking column to the left.  It is the last choice in the first section from the top, right above MEMBER FUNCTIONS.  Then you will find the answer in the middle section of the Home Page in big letters. Thanks for trying the question.  Come back to this Message Forum again and post something for all your classmates to read.  This is a fun way to communicate.  We would like to hear some of your stories from our school days and hope you will also post some photos on your profile page.  Show us your hobbies there.

Answer to the trivia question about one of our classmates in the User Forums (link on the left in the "blackboard column"): I was behind in my reading and have been trying to catch up since I retired. The answer was in the Inspire Awards in the January/February 2009 (yes, 2009) issue of AARP, the Magazine. I am pasting the sentence containing the answer below:

[Glenn] Close brings her own two rescued pups, Jacob Charles (Jake) and William Hamilton (Bill) , and an occasional foster dog, almost everywhere she goes, including to the set of the critically acclaimed Damages, where, she says, she is delighting in “proving that a mature woman can be sexy and complex and carry a show.”

You can find a picture of Glenn Close and three of her dogs by clicking here, but I don't know which one is Bill: www.aarpmagazine.org/people/inspire_awards_2009_close.htm
