Which is real, which is a myth?
1) Oprah Winfrey and Elvis (the King) are related.
2) Capt. Kangaroo was Frank Zappa's father.
3) Stevie Nicks had cocaine blown up her bunghole.
4) Yoko Ono got John hooked on heroin having him believe it was cold medicine.
5) Courtney Love had Kurt Cobain killed.

I haven't looked up any of the answers yet (and won't, because other than Captain Kangaroo, John Lennon and Frank Zappa, I have little interest in any of the others), but based on the replies and your responses Quizmo, you've created an interesting puzzle for me.
I laid out a truth table and can't find a solution that satisfies all of the responses.
Bryon and Dolores both answered the same on items 3 and 5.
Both answered differently on 1, 2 and 4.
Player 1 2 3 4 5
Bryon m r r r m
Dolores r m r m m
(shoulda done a table in html to make that clearer, maybe later)
Let's start with the answers they agree on (3 and 5)
Both cannot be correct, that would give Bryon 2 correct answers.
Both cannot be wrong, because that means that Bryon got 1, 2 or 4 correct.
Because they gave different answers, that would mean that Dolores only got two correct.
If only 3 or 5 is correct (and the other is not), then Dolores would have 4 correct (one that they agreed on and 1, 2 & 4 because she gave different answers than Bryon)
OR Bryon got more than one correct.
The only solutions that I can come up with are:
A. 3 or 5 is correct, but not the other.
The other has no correct answer.
Nope - That would give Dolores 4 right too.
B. You made a mistake in scoring.
I'm sure I'm wrong somewhere, because it's late and I'm watching the Mets game (Daniel Murphy just hit a homer - Michael Cudyer should be shipped to Tidewater on the next slow train) at the same time.
I'll wait to see if anyone comes up with all 5 answers without a conflict of the logic here or someone can correct me.
Puzzled,
Glenn

Glenn,
you made a clever, learned post so I'm going to reward you with a clue. I used r as Delores' last answer cause that appears to be what she actually thought on the matter.

Oh my... that makes for lots of variables... now I'll have to really think.
Thanks for the clue.

1) Oprah and Elvis are distant cousins
2) Capt Kangaroo was not Zappa's father
I submit that 3, 4, and 5, can not be proven or substantiated. They are all rumors.

Well you're right about the first 2.
Stevie Nicks was asked about the bunghole thing and says it absolutely didn't happen.
One of the Lennon biographers claims the cold medicine story happened and he was not sued by Yoko.
The last one is a little indefinite but it seems pretty clear to those who are familiar with the information that Courtney is the culprit.
