Dead or Alive? Game 18 12/18/07

Identify the following people as Dead or Alive. Then see if you can guess the theme. My notes had today’s theme as one word. There are a couple of more familiar names masquerading here. Extra bonus points if you can identify the akas in this list. Also, if you figure out the theme, more names should suggest themselves to you. A maximum of one bonus point per person on this list for each of these additional names. Enjoy!

Hmm, a bit confusing about the names you mentioned, especially since I know the category. Are you asking for some of there, um, alter egos?

One (well two now) of my favorite weeks on Letterman were the ventriloquist weeks!

1. Jay Johnson A - Most known for Bob but I liked Darwin on Letterman!
2. Shari Lewis D - Lamb Chop of course
3. Ronn Lucas (just for lb) A - Scortch, tried to see him in Vegas last trip but he was apparently "between venues" at the time.
4. Pinkus Wilchinski D? Sounds familiar but not sure why
5. Jeff Dunham A - Peanut and Walter!
6. Ray Alan D? Not familiar with him
7. Wayland Flowers D - Madame
8. Jim Barber A - Seville
9. Wayne Federman A? - Don't know him
10. Wenceslao Moreno D - Senor Wences, don't recall what his truly genuine "hand" puppet was called.

4. Pinkus Wilchinski = Dead, probably known under another name, if I were to guess I would guess Paul Winchell because of the initials and the theme
5. Jeff Dunham = Alive
6. Ray Alan = Dead
7. Wayland Flowers = Alive
8. Jim Barber = Alive
9. Wayne Federman = Alive, he grew up near where I grew up
10. Wenceslao Moreno = Dead, probably better known as something else

Bleah, even after carefully reading the instructions, I think I misunderstood them. At least if I did, I have company. Ha!

Although, if I did read them wrong, I got one right by accident
Spoiler
in putting Senor Wences, just because I couldn't remember what he called his little wig hand (although I remember him calling it something).
