I'll put up the remaining answers later today.

Our Dead Lentil is Linda de Roulet, except that I just remembered that Linda is Lorinda. So -- Or Our Dead Lentil.

For 80 points, who can solve Or Our Dead Lentil?

Awwww! What Rules? If I can add an 80-pointer in mid stream, I might as well ignore a harmless lane-violation. Did I ever tell anyone that my uncle reffed the USA-Soviet Union '72 Olympic Medal Game?

"Cavarretta" is spelled with two "R's". Deduct two points.

This is quite a steal. You've stolen your way right past your stealee and into 4th place. You eliminated LeiterWagner. And you clinched it for JCL. Be proud.
