We're thinking of Quentin (to me, at least, in honor of the Dark Shadows character).

Vincent Price was once a guest voice on Scooby Doo. If anyone can connect RM to Vincent Price, they can connect RM to Scooby Doo.

Well, we're thinking almost alike... names from two vampire shows.
Quentin is really an uncommon name, isn't it?

Technically, Quentin is from Dark Shadows, although Quentin was not a vampire. He was a ghost, then a werewolf, then an immortal (thanks to a mystical painting a la Dorian Grey).
But Quentin works from two other standpoints as well. It's Mari Beth's maiden name, and it means "fifth child." He would be the fifth grandchild in our family.

Okay, how about RM to Mikhail Gorbachev?
And RM to Hans Gudegast?
Tuff ones, I hope.

I would hardly call those fair. The original game "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" stipulated that the subjects would be movie actors. I doubt Gorbachev himself was in a movie, and I don't even recognize the second name.
However, an actor playing Gorbachev was in the opening teaser of Naked Gun, which starred Leslie Nielson, who was the captain in The Poseidon Adventure...
Does that count?

MG to Peter Falk in Faraway, So Close.
Peter to Norman Fell In It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World
Norman to RM in Rabbit Test.

Hans is an alias for Eric Braeden. He played Dr Otto Hasslein in Escape.

I didn't say Quentin was a Vampire, just from a vampire show.

Actually, while Mikhail never really acted, he did appear in two films. One was made in Germany in 1993 called Faraway, So Close. The other was a b/w German film made in 1992 and called Kinder, Kader, Kommanduere.

The Monkees made "Head" which also starred Jack Nicholson;
Jack Nicholson made Goin' South with Mary Steenburgen;
Mary Steenburgen made Dead of Winter with RM...
OK, try...

Too easy, Tami! The monkees had guest apear in alomst every episode. In two different shows, Booth Coleman and Severin Darden were guests, and we all know that Booth was Dr Zaius in the POTA series, and Severin was a mutant in Battle POTA.
Ya know, I'm still waiting for someone to come up with my test... RM to Scooby Doo. Can you?

Another way is: MG to Willem Dafoe in 'Faraway, So Close'; Dafoe to Gene Hackman in 'Mississippi Burning'; then Hackman to RM in 'Poseidon Adventure'

Just testing you, Paul ;>
However, I believe Hans is his real name, and Eric Braeden the alias. I used to watch Hans in the Rat Patrol tv series.
Now connect RM to Jackie Chan.

Except the question shouldn't have been addressed to everyone (though she had no way of knowing that), since I was and am the only guilty party.
My apologies to one and all for once again seeminging to neglect this list.
The fact of the matter is that this is the first time in almost 7 days that I have even had my computer turned on.
Two Fridays ago, my grandfather died and things have been rather hectic around here for me since then. I've been ferrying relatives, coping with a grandmother who went berserk (even tho they've been divorced 45 years... since he had the gall to die on her birthday, she was convinced that he not only did it on purpose but that everyone else in the family conspired with him.... sigh).
Anyhow.
The RM birthday card has been delivered just fine, though I don't know if he's seen it yet or not. As soon as I know something, I will let everyone know.
Also, I want to thank everyone who signed the card, and apologize to all those who, due to the time factor involved, did not get the chance to sign it themselves. I think that for next year, we should start... like... you know... tomorrow.....
Anyhow.
I'm trying to catch up with my 300 plus email messages, and other such stuff, so I will write more later.
Thanks for all your understanding....
And, once again, my apologies to all for the silence, the delay, and anything else I may have neglected or done wrong lately.....
