| Good one! Got them all except for Ray Charles - didn't know he had parkinsins. (sorry for the spelling) I thought Ali had this disease. 
This type of teaser is good for a family site - cause all ages can enjoy it. Thanks and I hope you do more! |

Hey snowmonster ... check your answers ... Ray Charles was not a "boastful boxer who had parkinsons." |

| For what it's worth, Simon's the only judge worth a damn on that show. How do we get better teasers if we don't give honest feedback? |
