Str8cashhomey_medium

1. Brian B's wife: 97 points (Charlton Heston, Robert Mondavi)
2. Madville: 61 points (Bob Howsam)
3. BLee: 41 points (Charlton Heston)
3. boobs' roommate: 41 points (Charlton Heston)
3. JD: 41 points (Charlton Heston)
3. JD's wife: 41 points (Charlton Heston)
3. Red Menace: 41 points (Charlton Heston)

Alan actually hit with Howard Dill, who died this week of liver cancer, but unfortunately the Pumpkin King was not important enough to make the front page of CNN.com, or anywhere on CNN.com, for that matter. He actually doesn't even have a Wikipedia page, which should have disqualified him immediately. Anyway, that's one down for Alan with no points.
