Trivia Tuesday

~ Apparently, even when you have a whole table of Catholic School students, you can mis-hear a question regarding a religious movie starring Charlton Heston based on a book, and you can all agree that, yes, The 10 Commandments must be the book that was written in the year 1880...Oops!

~ Blue shots of something that looks like chlorinated pool water is un-surprisingly awful!  (PSA: I only took a sip - darn you stupid "try everything you're offered" rule!)

~ There are 4 famous people mentioned in the song "It's the End of the World" by REM.  One of which is Leonid Brezhnev which for the record I said, and no one believed.

~ Apparently the movie "The Lost Boys" starring Corey Feldman was about vampires.  And now, Corey Feldman dressed as a vampire on an episode of "Psych" finally makes sense.

~ Even though that horrible human being that raised the price of the life-saving drug from $13 to $750 has been in the news for weeks now, there's no guarantee that anyone is going to know his name aside from the usual "awful excuse for a human being."

~ Apparently "only" 9.25% of the world's population is living in extreme poverty which is the lowest it's been in years.  Of course, if you think about the world at about 7 billion people - that's still almost 70 million in extreme poverty.  And in case you're not sure of the definition of extreme poverty - it's living on less than $1.25 a day!  I'm not sure anyone felt good about getting that one right.

~ Assuming a Heisman winner from the Naval Academy would be some unknown was totally the wrong assumption on my part.  Roger Staubach was a HUGE player and apparently was a grad of the academy.  Way to go Roger!
