    the weekend quizzes usually humble me... but I got lucky today...

    there were only a couple of NFI questions this time... for which I pulled correct guesses out of my butt...

    and three romance-language questions, which I can nail more often than not...
    you've been on a roll this

    5 wins in a row. well done

    i got 7 today

    Not bad considering questions on 'World trivia' were all about the US.

    lol... yeah... when that happens I’m sure it sucks to be from the other side of the pond... sorry 'bout that...

    it works both ways though...

    I recall quizzes that were loaded with questions about UK train stations and tv shows and such...

    about which I of course have NFI…


    my favorite such NFI questions usually involve the UK (or some place that used to be a part of the British Empire)...

    and goes something like this:

    In (some random year), which of the following towns (that I never heard of) hosted the championship for (a sport I know nothing about), in which (some person I never heard of) scored the game-winning (sports term I never heard of) for the (team I never heard of) to defeat the (other team I never heard of) by a score of (a pair of random numbers separated by a hyphen) and win the (sports trophy I never heard of)? Hint: The town hosting the championship is famous for its (culinary dish I never heard of), and the captain of (one of the two teams I never heard of) used to be married to the popular star of (some tv show I never heard of), who originally hailed from this town, and whose mother became highly successful in her own right by selling her secret recipe for (the town’s culinary specialty I never heard of) to the (brand name I never heard of) for (a big number preceded by a funny-looking symbol).

    All 10 correct in 65 seconds.
    Democracy is screwed up because while agreement and compromise make the world better, bitter rivalry is just more fun.


    Just to be clear, a Bush supporter complaining that Obama is a 'bad President' is like gargling skunk piss while complaining the dog has farted. --TopsyTurvy
