This week's winner: Linda M. Scarritt of Tampa knew that Ira Gershwin won a Pulitzer Prize in 1932 for the musical Of Thee I Sing. Gershwin was the first songwriter ever to win the honor. (Brother George Gershwin was not included because his contribution was musical and not literary.)

This week's question: Today is Motor City Madman Ted Nugent's 53rd birthday. Before going solo, the singer/guitarist, hunting advocate, publisher and beef jerky sponsor scored his first big hit with Journey to the Center of Your Mind with an early band. To enter your name in the random drawing for the cat-scratchin' Weekend T-shirt, tell me the name of the Nuge's early band.
