And I should have. Mr. Maryn has a handful of Brautigans that I can almost reach from here.

Any further guesses on my real-man true-patriot fella?

Maryn, knowing many of you will groan because of course that's him

No, but that's a very good guess. The two are cut from the same cloth, but Heston is younger.

I promise, you all will know this guy, even if you're not a US person.

I suppose another hint is in order: There are unproven theories about the cause of this man's death.

John Wayne? That smile looks familiar.

Whoever he is, he's a dish!

We have a winner! That is indeed John Wayne. I only knew of him when he'd long outgrown that look, which I consider really handsome.

Your turn.

This attractive woman broke ground for other women in her profession in the 1960s.
Baby boomers will remember her fangs.

Psst! Before a moderator for this board comes along, you might want to resize that. It's way over the maximum size AW allows, which is approximately this:

But she had fangs! That's got to be a huge clue, so why don't I know this?

(Thanks for resizing.)

No. Here's another clue:

TV put her on the map, where her get-ups would have put Lady Gaga to shame. (And no, it wasn't in a horror TV series!)

No more guesses?

It's comedienne Phyllis Diller! Who used to open monologues by talking about her husband, Fang.

Wow. Of course now that you tell us, I can see it, but man, I'd never have gotten there on my own. Like, never.

Here's another which may be easier.

It's hard to imagine this author, ground-breaking scientist, and CBE awardee as a young husband on his wedding day, but here he is!

I bet you're right. You'd better start searching for one to post!
