What is "Steely Dan"
 

OK get your keyboards ready. Todays Quiz was orginally a question I posed to Mr Olsen on another Board. It was deemed a little to obscure for them. Lets see if this group is a little brighter than that lot over on the other Board.

Todays Question is: What is "Steely Dan"?

A. The name Mr Olsen gave his Underwood Typewriter.

B. The name of a Rock Band.

C. An adult sex toy.

D. All of the above

b, c

Can U explain your answer?

Steely Dan III from Yokohama?
Starred in a paragraph of the Naked Lunch by William Burroughs.
The band took the name from him/it.

Watch out for the Great Slashtub!tch;)

See that wasn't too obscure....I thinkest the boyz from the Registry are a little slow....

Isa is the most correct; a character in Burroughs famous novel.

I thought b was named after c?

not obscure at all...

First 5 SD albums are some of the greatest music ever made.

Steely Dan was a dildo :o

Ahhh so Jack Olsens Underwood typewriter is a .......

Some good solo albums from Donald Fagen too!

Donald Fagan is a frequent guest in the back of my airplane.

Both Isabo and John L. are correct.

do tell...you fly him during tours? I'll be driving down to San Diego next Friday to catch that show.

He and Becker are on my short list of people I'd like to meet...

I am due to bring him in from NYC next Wednesday. He and his wife are always a pleasure to fly. We don't normally fly him for the tours, but as a favor from one of my clients, a music exec.

The answer here is obvious...somebody who posts here who seems to think he's the only person who reads...;)
