Funny tidbit: I attend Boise State, and there's a meeting room in the Student Union Building (SUB) called the Farnsworth room. It's where my fraternity conducted all business meetings last year. There's pictures of him up with his first TV.

The green one irratates me, I know I've seen that face before, US history, something tells me mid 1800's... gah, I'll noodle on it.

I think someone pointed this out somewhere back there, but the flower in the lower right of smoker is "Common Yarrow" (Achillea Millefolium). Commonly knows as "Common Yarrow" according to my reference but maybe just "Yarrow".

Lojack: same here. I KNOW I recognize that picture. Damn!

I feel like he's on the front cover of a book of literature I've seen. Do any authors ring any bells?

Orion Solve.

It looks like I was close, just picked the wrong star names:

Just where I wear my tiara… (5) Meissa (Orion's Head)(S)
the best foot (2) Rigel (West Foot) (I)
one, two, buckle my pants (2)(The PMs screwed this up, should be 3rd letter) Alniham (Belt) (N)
The loop on my swordbelt (7)(The PMs screwed this up too, should be 6th letter, they probably spelled it "mitaka") (Mintaka) (K)


get the point? (1) Hatysa (sword tip) (H)
Armpit. Ick. (7) BETELGEUSE (E)
and the little devil stands here...or is it the angel? (5) BELLATRIX (West Shoulder) (A)
Me and Herakles — EVERYONE is wearing them this season (1) Tabit (the skin) (T)

For the fly DNA puzzle I'm almost 100% certain on all of these except for possibly CLOWN and TIN. The quote was from the book "Tin Drum" and there is a mutation called "Tin Man" (because the mutation has no heart, like the Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz).

I have the abbreviated name first, and the full name in parentheses.

couldn't steal second instar: MGE (MAGGIE)
string was a lethal combo: NOOSE
mmmmm... Salt.: LOT
0 gravity: YURI

??? "That I would stop right there, remain as I was": TIN (TINMAN) ???
Where is my denticle belt?: DISC (DISCO)
Shake! Shake! Shake! zzzzzzz: EAG (ETHER A-GO-GO)

Trapped in my egg: AMON (AMONTILLADO)
Eye'm melting! Eye'm melting!: CLN (CLOWN)
"I'm not dead yet!": INDY
daddy broke my legs: VLC (VULCAN)
lost my head: DAEH

Talking about the first guy? He looks like Castro. Who says these stamps are US only?
