Brilliant! Your user name tells me you are an aviator, and are familiar with Corrigan? Can’t slow some folks down.

 

Astute observation, my friend! I see by your avatar that you're a fan of C.F. Martin & Co. Excellent taste...

I am an aviator...and an Irish one at that (Grandma came on the boat, y'know?)

I wish I could go back in time to when (seemingly) all it took was reasonably good looks, good diction, and a penchant for flying and you had it made in the limelight! But I enjoy flying more than I would enjoy fame

 

C F Martin. I assume you refer to the guitar in the avatar. That picture was taken while we were performing for a bar-b-cue at a local historic park. I don’t remember whose guitar I borrowed for that picture. My instrument is the fiddle next to the guitar. You could be right. One of our group has an original, unrestored, Gibson Les Paul. He bought it new.

Regarding the clues for my rebus. I deliberately chose an image of Corrigan that did not show an airplane. I figured that him beside a plane might be a dead giveaway, even to somebody who might not otherwise recognize his image. I didn’t figure an actual aviator would see the clues! You beat me! Well done!

Tony Binnetti?

PS: Ni idea who he is, but a Python fan can always do googles when he has the basics .

Ni!

 

Or maybe Tony Bennett!

 

But then wouldn't clue three have been

 

Nobody having a go at this one from yesterday?

 

Maybe a hint? Maybe not?

 

Brilliant! Yes!

 

Maginot Line?

 

Can i give myself a modest little star? I think I might.

 

Okay! Try this all you......umm.......bright rebus people.

 

? Anyone? I thought this rebus might give you pause for thought! Looking forward to giving myself a star for putting together a rebus I have to answer for you all. I’ll wait a day or so before I drop a hint or two.

 

I’ve lost track. Was there an answer for this one?

 

Been thinking about it all day but still can't get it.

Monster/Devil/Evil
Bar/Grill/Cafe/Diner
Run away
Gull?

 

Answer was Philip Roth. Author of Portnoy's Complaint etc.

That's why I answered it with another rebus.

 

You have NO clue how close you are! Work on your second and third answer a bit. You’ll put it together, I’m sure. Or you’ve given someone else a head start.
