I dinna get Miss Alcott. I might have liked that one. I got a question that required an answer I did not know.

I think this is an avatar that Man Ray might have designed.

No. They were really obscure pomes, with five well known poets. Alcott was the answer. I still can't find the pomes.

I think this is an avatar that Man Ray might have designed.

If Man Ray worked for Harrods.

Or an inside out Christian Louboutin.

The past week I haven't received my email about the question of the day. I have to go to the website and pull it up myself. Am I that bad that they won't even remind to try and answer?

I got them all right this week except for the one that I got the error message which I didn't know and still don't....

The number of original survivors of the plane crash on Lost (or something similar to that wording).

It looks like 72 is your answer:


Out of the 324 people on board, there were 72 initial survivors (71 humans and 1 dog) spread across the three sections of the plane crash. The opening season featured 14 regular speaking roles, making it the second largest cast in a currently-airing American prime time television show behind Desperate Housewives. While a large cast makes Lost more expensive to produce, the writers benefit from more flexibility in story decisions. According to series executive producer Bryan Burk, "You can have more interactions between characters and create more diverse characters, more back stories, more love triangles."[44]
The initial season had 14 major roles getting star billing. Naveen Andrews portrayed former Iraqi Republican Guard Sayid Jarrah. Emilie de Ravin played the pregnant Australian Claire Littleton. Matthew Fox acted as the troubled surgeon and protagonist Jack Shephard. Jorge Garcia portrayed Hugo "Hurley" Reyes, an unlucky lottery winner. Maggie Grace played Shannon Rutherford, a former dance teacher. Josh Holloway acted as con man James "Sawyer" Ford. Yunjin Kim played Sun-Hwa Kwon, the daughter of a powerful Korean businessman and mobster, with Daniel Dae Kim as her husband Jin-Soo Kwon. Evangeline Lilly portrayed fugitive Kate Austen. Dominic Monaghan acted as ex-rock star drug addict Charlie Pace. Terry O'Quinn played the mysterious John Locke. Harold Perrineau portrayed construction worker Michael Dawson, while child actor Malcolm David Kelley acted as his young son, Walt Lloyd. Ian Somerhalder played Boone Carlyle, chief operating officer of his mother's wedding business and step brother of Shannon. Boone was one of the first main characters to be killed, dying near the end of season one.

Thanks. If I happen to get it again, maybe I'll get it right.

Woohoo! My intimate knowledge of the sport involving fat Japanese guys in diapers vaulted me into the top 29!

Not for long.

That leaderboard is really fluid.

I feel your pain. I missed questions two days in a row.

I got 1519 for today's question and I am back in the top 100, for now.

I understand fluidity. I was imbibing some "fluids" last night.

Green Eggs and Ham!

Sorry, I'm sorry, so sorry, I've been wanting to type this since I saw sc's title.

I do not like them, Sam I am!

It's not just you. I haven't received an e-mail from Sploofus in several days. When I remember to do so, I log in and answer the question. I started May with two straight misses, so like Richard Nixon, you won't have TheConfessor to kick around any more. Unless I make a comeback.

Well that sucks. I just did the last three days and am in 12th for now.

I haven't received my emails from Sploofus either.

I also received Merriam-Webster words of the day and they stopped sending them to me as well.
