Thursday Morning Riddle

I’m the Bengals of Bangladesh; cats of Detroit;
I’m the year of Jay Leno, Star Jones, and Jon Voight;
On the Mac, I’m a ten-four; in golf, I’m adroit;
And the flakes that are frosted, I loudly exploit!

Who am I?

UPDATE: Riddle solved by Ro. See comments for answer.

    A tiger beat, if you will.

    TIGER is correct. Way to go, Ro!

    Congratulations on building a rhyme with, seemingly, the only 4 uses of -oit.

  5. Bill Says:

    Indeed. It was not easy to get Jon Voight in there, either.

    I did think of you and Craig, and wondered if either of you would try to continue the rhyme.

    But just for fun…

    I am skilled with the golf club but less with the quoit;
    When I’m paper, the nation is not worth a doit;
    I’m a Have Gun Will Travel that featured Clegg Hoyt;
    And a large hungry cat it is not wise to moit.

    Who am I?
