We Have a Weiner!!


Mz. Maggie Pollard was in just ahead of continuing winner Tim McNally
and put an end to his nonsense by guessing
Creedence Clearwater Revival......nice!

Thanks for all the Beach Boys guesses......
but you can't just pencil whip TT.....
do your homework people.

The name....
CREEDENCE--was from the first name of a friend of Tom Fogerty's...
with an extra "e" thrown in.

CLEARWATER--came from an Olympia Beer commercial!
For all you youngsters out there.....good cheap beer back in the day.
CCR sounds better than
Creedence Artesian Revival anyways.

REVIVAL--came from the dedication of "getting the band back together"
after several members returned back from military duty.

John and Tom Fogerty were brothers.
Tom died from AIDS in 1990 at age 48.....
contracted from blood transfusions for back ailments.
All members grew up together.....
but a bitter breakup means probably no reunion.


Never had a #1 hit.....but a TON of others..
Youngsters...
Give this a listen.....they never get old
