Answer 3

Rory Emerald is one of the most fascinating Americans in our nation's history. He is an accomplished actor, author, poet, and statesman. He has dated some of the most stunning women in Hollywood history, from Elizabeth Taylor and Debbie Reynolds, to Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. Both the Democratic and Republican parties have approached him about running for President, but he is not interested, as he wishes to remain more behind the scenes. He is a man that no matter what the situation continues to bedazzle, captivate, and fascinate.

He is also known for being one of the few people to maintain a close friendship with both Princess Diana and Prince Charles after their divorce. He was one of the last people that Diana spoke to before her untimely death. And he still regularly goes to England to hunt with Charles.

There are rumors that Rory himself is the source of many of the questions about him on Yahoo Answers, but this has never been confirmed!

Excellent Question!!

Answer 5

Rory Emerald, aka Julian Lee Hobbs, the Los Angeles man who placed an ad in The Roanoke Times claiming to have found the diary of a "very famous American" in an old clock, is no stranger to newspaper classifieds.

In the past few months he has placed about 12 ads in papers large and small across the country. All "friendly hoaxes" that have swamped him with phone calls, he said.

In Milwaukee he found an Olympic gold medal; in San Diego a baby panda; in Atlanta a World Series ring; in San Francisco a two-headed cat; in Santa Barbara, Calif., a prosthetic nose.

In Massachusetts, he placed an ad in The Patriot Ledger claiming to have found a Hasty Pudding award - a Pudding Pot bestowed annually to performers by Harvard University's Hasty Pudding Club. The paper picked up the story on its news pages, he said, and had to run a follow-up article the next day admitting it had been duped.

Emerald has been pulling off these tricks for years. In 1990, he fooled The Associated Press into thinking that he was Elizabeth Taylor's boyfriend, at the ripe old age of 23.

"I'm a professional hoaxer," he said. "It's actually very, very hard. A person that's doing it for the very first time would have a very tough time."

So what's his next hoax? Emerald won't divulge any details. "It's going to be so good," is all he'll reveal. Watch out.
