Trivia Tuesday

~ Apparently one of the longest words in the German language has 63 letters and explains a type of regulation placed on beef manufacturing.  Now I ask you, if you were writing the German language and had to choose what word would require all those letters, wouldn't you choose something that's a little prettier and more poetic than regulations of beef manufacturing?

~ The team with the name Namaste in Bed should win the night for sheer clever team name alone. 

~ The band Def Leppard has a one armed drummer.  Apparently, Foo Fighters is not the correct answer to every rock band question.  

~ Getting excited about a clue called TV Doctors is useless because the trivia masters will choose something ridiculous like Dr. Quinn.  (We got it right, but couldn't we have gone classic ER?)

~ When the Halftime question is about major league sluggers, and you have 5 really good guesses, you should probably throw them all out and start naming obscure players most people have never heard of.  They're usually the answer.

~ I may not do algebra every day like my teachers told me I would, but my 6th grade science memorization certainly came in handy when asked about the classification of mammals.

~ When the category is Podcasts, the answer will surely have something to do with Serial.  I was prepared with Adnan Said's name, where the crime took place and even if he was going to receive a new trial.  Of course the question only cared about the name of the actual podcast.  Lame!

~ Perseverance is a word that's hard to spell, even though I've never had a hard time with it. That brings me to my next thought, when you know you know your answer, don't let everyone else talk you out of it...
