Humma Kavula, you are correct. The board is yours.

4. Score Bard

Explanation: Order of speaking lines in Shakespeare plays.

King Lear: Kent 1, Cordelia 6, Regan 7
Twelfth Night: Valentine 3, Viola 4, Andrew 8
Hamlet: Francisco 2, Polonius 9

Leaving the speaker #5 in Hamlet, who is King Claudius.

Woo hoo! I'll take Subjective for 400. Finish off the category. Thanks.

I knew I was on the right track, but I was hungry and I had to go to lunch. So I took an educated guess.

I would kindly ask Score Bard not to post anything right before I am scheduled to go out to eat.

Of course, with Subjective it doesn't matter. I think we should just give For The Turnstiles the 400 points by default.

He's writing like Tennyson while some of us are writing like Rod McKuen.

8. For The Turnstiles

Tennyson wrote limericks? I much prefer the puzzle categories, but was about 5 minutes too late on this one. I was impressed by how many of these names were also the last names of baseball players. (Is there a scene in Hamlet where Francisco throws a throne?)
