Had Fran and Lance switched but got the rest. I’m so pathetic.

Muppetmaker-
Thanks a lot for providing that information. I had meant to put those in the post, but it slipped my mind.
By the way, a great resource for anyone looking for their favorite stars on Twitter is http://www.celebritytweet.com
