Which US President was also Chief Justice of the Supreme Court (not concurrently, of course)? George

King Ralph John Hurt Partners George

Correct. Obviously, Shatner from TOS and Pine from the movie reboot. Jimmy Bennett played the young Kirk in the first (reboot) movie. Paul Wesley played Kirk in the last episode of Season 1 of ST Strange New Worlds. The others were in streamed ST shows. George

Okay, then ... Jodie Foster? George

Well, as there are only four choices, and Alicia Silverstone seems a bit too obvious, let's try Tina Fey. George

The broken toe sounds familiar. I think I even used it. Now, if can just remember the movie... George

No. Paul Wesley Jimmy Bennett Chris Pine James Cawley William Shatner Brian Gross George

I suppose if we had more sports buffs, this one might have been figured out, at least the "broad strokes." Broad strokes: Dimaggio was the only one listed who played for the same team, in the same city, for his whole career. Fine point: ALL of them started and finished their careers in the same city. Aaron: Started as a Milwaukee Brave, moved to Atlanta with the Braves, finished his career as a Milwaukee Brewer. Mays: Started his career as a New York Giant, moved to San Francisco with the Giants, finished his career as a New York Met. Ruth: Started his career as a Boston Red Sox (Sock?), was traded to the New York Yankees, then was traded to the Baston Braves. Foxx: Started his career as a Philadelphia Athletic, moved to Kansas City with the Athletics, finished his career as a Philadelphia Phil. I heard this on an NPR quiz show years ago, and I thought it was really cool. FREE POST George

Still not getting it. George

The star underwent 4-5 hours of makeup and prosthetic applications to transform into his character, not including the two hours it took to take it all off, and had to wear multiple fat suits during filming, which took place in the middle of summer. Because of the latex, he experienced heat rashes, scars, scratches and infections. There was a time limit on how long he could be in the suit while filming, maxing out at six hours because of the poor ventilation. "They got better and better at air-conditioning me, just keeping me calm," Allen told ABC News of the later films. For one week in 1994, the star of this movie had the #1 movie (this one), the #1 TV show, and the #1 New York Times best seller. The star has a criminal record, and Disney has a strict no hiring of ex-cons policy. An exception was made in this case. (Apparently, not so strict.) On older releases of the film, the star made a sarcastic remark in the movie, which included the line "1-800-SPANK-ME." During the film's release, a woman from near Cleveland, Ohio called the supposedly-fictional number for her curious grandchildren. It turned out to be a phone sex line. However, it wasn't until 1997, when Disney received complaints from parents whose children called the number and racked up huge phone bills, did the studio take action and cut the line for future releases. Disney also said that they would purchase the phone number to disconnect the service. This part of the film is also cut in the DVD's release and on Disney+. On television broadcasts, the number is changed to 1-800-POUND. The film was originally going to be released by Hollywood Pictures, but after positive reactions from test screenings among children, it was shifted to a Walt Disney Pictures release. Hollywood Pictures was still credited and was mentioned in the early teaser trailer. Bill Murray and Chevy Chase both turned down offers to play the lead role. George

By "careers," I meant their times in the major leagues, not their early lives. And, yes, they were all Hall-of-Famers. This will probably make it a LOT easier, but think of WHERE they played. George

Perhaps open up a Wikipedia (or other site) page for each one and see if something stands out to you. George

They were all men, too; but that doesn't mean there weren't any differences. George

"Yellow Submarine" is, of course, correct. George

Sports trivia. Which one of these is different from the others, and why: Jimmy Foxx, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays? Note: it's not about statistics. You could say that Aaron was the only one with more than 750 HR, but you could just as easily say that Gehrig was the only one with fewer than 500. Think about their careers. As with Human's post, there's a "broad strokes" answer, but there's also a fine point to it. George

That's not the most well-known version... George
