  5. I have no idea who this is, but I have to congratulate you Eddie, on your success. Do you realize you have Emil Sitka following your blog? I've had no such luck on my blog. Vernon Dent won't even give me the time of day.

  15. None have answered correctly. One more clue is in order...Believe it or not, a roach played an important part in his life.

  16. My first thought was George Jefferson, but then I took a closer look and this guy is much too tall to be George.

  17. Some great guessing going on here, but no prize! One last clue...and I do mean last...a lot of people did impressions of him.

  19. That him! Arthur Stanley Jefferson (16 June 1890 – 23 February 1965), better known as Stan Laurel. His work with the Hal Roach studios is legendary.
