Who Am I? Week #10

[kingchuck69]

Sorry I couldn't start this last night; my internet connection puked on me.

It's time for Week #10 of "Who Am I?". Remember, the winner gets a chunk of my gratitude.

This week's subject is a THING.

CLUE #1: I inspired a hit song from the 70's.

CLUE #2: It was owned by an insurance company.

 

[DoublEE]

Mutual Of New York (MONY) Insurance Company building? Tommy James (of Tommy James & the Shondells) could see the sign from his apartment and inspired him to write MONY MONY. However, this song was a hit in 1968 so I think I'm wrong...

 

[HecticArt]

Animal vegetable or mineral?

 

[kingchuck69]

I must be stumping y'all...

CLUE #3: I was last seen in Superior, Wisconsin.

 

[DoublEE]

And the answer is...

The Edmund Fitzgerald

 

[memebag]

Wah. That ship was an ass.

 

[Bandwagon03]

Nice...

 

[kingchuck69]

DoublEE wins!

The answer was indeed the Edmund Fitzgerald, named for the former president of the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance company, which owned the ship.

New contest next Monday!
