It's pretty simple. I ask random trivia questions, and you give the best answer you can WITHOUT looking up the answers.
1. What 70s pop hit references both Humphrey Bogart and Peter Lorre?
2. How many people lost their lives when the Edmund Fitzgerald sank in Lake Superior?
3. Who told Hitler to fortify the Atlantic Wall and was largely ignored (please give full name and rank)?
4. What was the answer to the question which brought Ken Jennings' amazing Jeopardy run to an end?
5. What does the term "NIDA 5" refer to?
Good luck, and thanks for playing.
If you cannot answer all of them, answer the ones you can. I am sure plenty of people will not be able to answer them all.
And the correct answers are:
1. "The Year of the Cat" by Al Stewart;
2. 29 men--it's in the song "The Edmund Fitzgerald" by Gordon Lightfoot--Haysoos was kind enough to provide the actual quote;
3. Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, AKA "The Desert Fox";
4. H&R Block, the tax folks;
5. The five categories of drugs which most standard drug tests test for--the NIDA part refers to The National Institute On Drug Abuse, and the drug categories include cannabinoids (anything with THC, including pot and hash), cocaine, amphetamines, opiates (including heroin and opium), and PCP.
