Trivia

I know several people had ideas in the past for specialized trivia either on the forum or in IRC. I've already spoken with a couple of you ... anyone else with ideas, please contact an admin or post it here. We're looking to hold another event very soon ...

here's an idea that you cant look up in google!

Asylum History Trivia!
(but then that would be for you old people!)

or we can do a variation. online scavenger hunts!

I'd gladly run one of those....

or sumthin... Since I don't actually know anything It'd be hard for me to run trivia...

but I'd like to!

but you tell me it's temporary, it's a matter of time
by god

and it's right over left, and healing the then
I'll soon be to nothing but i don't know when

What's the most trivial question you could think of? I'll start:

"How many stooges were there in The Three Stooges?"

You are correct ...
http://flyingdreams.simplenet.com/t...ie/lassfact.htm

All the dogs portraying Lassie have been male. A female collie was hired to play the lead in Lassie Come Home, but when an opportunity came to film "Lassie" negotiating some rapids, Rudd Weatherwax's collie "Pal" not only stole the stunt, he won the role. Weatherwax continued to use male collies in the role for a good reason: both sexes shed in the summer (when most movies and television shows traditionally film most of their episodes), but since the male has a thicker coat, he wouldn't look so scrawny during filming. Female collies were not ignored because they are any less intelligent; in fact, some of Lassie's stunt doubles have been females.

Here's another really trivial piece of trivia:

Who was the very first President of The United States of America to hold an airplane's license?

Back then, all you had to do to get a pilots license, was to sign a form affirming that you could read and write in english. Then any other pilot could check you out to fly any aircraft.

Don't argue with me.
