Day #10

Sorry for the SUPER late post! Where does the time go? You start working and suddenly it's 11:00. Totally crazy!

So this is a trivia question for those following TV series finales. Any of you who are my friend on Facebook may have seen my last update that Grey's Anatomy knows how to do a finale. Granted, I only saw three episodes this season, but I thought I would give the season finale a chance.

It was totally old school--which meant I HAD to watch it. Circa 1980's, it actually took the No Holds Barred approach of "no one is safe." Call me twisted, but I found it refreshing after all of the "safe" finales simply perpetuating other show's status quos.

So today's trivia is a pop culture question: List the characters that were shot by the lone gunman in last night's season finale of Grey's Anatomy AND (maybe this part isn't google-able) name the characters who did not turn into weeping, sobbing babies after encountering the gunman.

(Seriously, there was a lot of indulgent freaking out in this episode, which was the only thing I felt didn't work. Some people freak out in a crisis, but most have the sense to do what needs to be done in the moment i.e. hand a doctor something they need while they're holding a would shut and NOT trying to run away into the hall in the direction the gunman went... that's just me, though)

First correct answer WINS :) Have fun!!!

That darn video again!!!!

Okay, I'm reposting the video from yesterday, because last night as I was trying to go to sleep, 3 lines from it kept running through my head and making me laugh. Then, just as I would get over laughing at one line and drifting on the cusp of sleep, another one would pass through my head and I would start laughing again.

Always the same 3 lines.

So today is more of a social experiment than trivia and there will be 3 winners (potentially, unless one person gets them all). Do all of us laugh equally to the same thoughts presented in the video? What's your favorite line that makes you laugh out loud, and is that 1 of the 3 keeping me up at night?

Soon we will know!

So, what 3 lines (not necessarily consecutive) from this music video had me literally laughing in my sleep? :)

Up to 3 possible winners today :) Guess away!

Vitamin Trivia & a Total Eclipse of the Heart

Okay, first off, if you haven't seen this video, it's totally funny:



But what you really came for is the trivia, and today's question is brought to you by my brother Steven, and goes like this: What vitamin is technically not a vitamin?

First correct answer wins :)

Day #7

This one is a classic riddle about two actual historial people.

George and Evelyn never met but they carried on writing until late in life. It has been said that Evelyn loved George, but she was too old for him. George married in 1880. He converted to Catholicism in 1930. During World War II, he served with the Royal Marines. Partly in recognition of this, Evelyn's subsequent writings analyzed the character of that war.

Evelyn died in 1966 in Somerset. Her first full-length novel had been published in 1859. She is buried in Highgate Cemetery. He died at age 62, after having published his autobiography in 1964. He lived one year longer than she did.

How could these statements all be true? First correct answer wins :)

Day #6

HAPPY MONDAY!

Today's trivia comes from Day #5's winner, Rachael, and goes a little something like this:

Three brothers share a family sport. They race every day, all day long, and never stop. The first is short and stout, the second tall and trim, and the third poised and skeletal, but he is sure to win. Why, and what are they?

First correct answer (declared by Rachael) WINS!

See you on Monday!

Congratulations to this week's winners!

Next week we're going to kick off with a riddle from today's winner, Rachael, so see you on Monday, and bring your thinking caps to win :)
