Quiz: Spammer, or Supreme Court Justice?

Today I decided to revamp a little game I invented a while back in which I list a bunch of obscure names and have you guess whether they are U.S. historical figures or just names I pulled from the sender column in my Gmail Spam folder.  Today, in an oh-so-topical nod to the confirmation hearings of Sonia Sotomayor, I am focusing on Supreme Court Justices!

Ready to play??  The list below contains the names of 6 former U.S. Justices and 4 people claiming to have the best prices on Viagra.  Can you correctly identify them all?  Answers are after the continuation.

1. Bushrod Washington
2. Salmon Portland Chase
3. Armand Bowden
4. Lucius Quintus Cincinnatus Lamar
5. Wyatt Harden
6. Moises Koenig
7. Rufus Peckham
8. Mahlon Pitney
9. Marlon Gustafson
10. Felix Frankfurter

Answers

1. Bushrod Washington: Supreme Court Justice, 1799-1829.
2. Salmon Portland Chase: Supreme Court CHIEF Justice, 1864-1873. Yes, there was a Chief Justice Salmon.
3. Armand Bowden: Spammer, 2009.  Has the lowest prices on the entire Internet!
4. Lucius Quintus Cincinnatus Lamar: Supreme Court Justice, 1888-1893. Had a gnarly beard.
5. Wyatt Harden: Spammer, 2009.  Also sells Viagra.  His last name might be a nod to that.
6. Moises Koenig: Spammer, 2009. Can get you a 30-Day supply of any of a variety of medications!
7. Rufus Peckham: Supreme Court Justice, 1896-1909.
8. Mahlon Pitney: Supreme Court Justice, 1912-1922.  Personal motto: "Appointed by Taft. Looks like Harding."
9. Marlon Gustafson: Spammer, 2009.  Claims his Viagra is "custom-made."  Not sure if that is a good thing.
10. Felix Frankfurter: Supreme Court Justice, 1939-1962.  You can also call him Justice Hot Dog.

How did you score?

Wow, I just looked at the list and tried to guess the 4 spammers. Each one was actually a Supreme Court Justice.
