We have a Wiener!!....and a long distance dedication!

Neil Simon-Burt Bacharach-Hal David

Now that's what I like.....
A dedicated TT player....
still playing on their 25th Anniversary Hawaiian vacation!

Congrats to Mary & Chuck who (with a little help of the TT judges) won this week's puzzler with the correct guess of Burt Bacharach and Hal David.

Although their answer came in later than everyone elses......
they do have a 5 hour delay.....
so the time stamp of their email was earlier than the rest of you.....
and actually hours before the Trivia was even posted.....

buy hey....!!
it's my stupid game and if you go to Hawaii on your 25th Anniversary.......
and you email me the correct answer that week.....
then I will make you a GRAND PRIZE winner too!!

Hal & Burt....
--Burt was married to Angie (Police Woman) Dickinson
--Hal has several doctorates in music....both earned and honorary.
--New tunes today.....feature all songs by Hal & Burt together.
--Above both are posing with Neil Simon....
who wrote the book that the musical "Promises Promises" was made from.
--Promises Promises is having a revival on Broadway with the opening just a few weeks ago.

Good interview with the both of them if you have a few minutes.....
