Trivial Tuesday

~ It's quite difficult for some people to understand a question when said question isn't also appearing on a giant screen in front of them.  Thankfully the Trivia master got that problem fixed quickly or the night would have felt much longer. 

~ The Bears and The Packers have the oldest rivalry in the NFL - so apparently it's not just the guys at work that like to argue about these 2 teams. 

~ A Baby Echidna - I'm not 100% sure what that even is - is known as a puggle.  Not a wollie as we thought.  To be fair I know Echidnas are Australian and Wollie sounds a bit more Aussie than puggle.

~ Apparently China and India have the world's largest crops of Broccoli and Cauliflower.  We only chose China because we decided you get a lot of broccoli with Chinese food - offensive, yes, but also sound logic it appears.  If it makes you feel better, we were wrong on the second country, so our offensiveness didn't get us anywhere. 

~ My only memory of Snape in Harry Potter is that he teaches Defense against the Dark Arts.  But apparently, he also taught Potions - a small detail that I swear I've never heard before.  Luckily, my team are bigger Potterheads than I am.

~ Sometimes choosing an African nation or a Bond movie completely at random, is the quickest and most direct way to earn some serious points.

~ In the first speech of Macbeth, the witches chant includes the wing of a "howlet," not a crow.  In my defense, doesn't crow seem like it would rhyme with more than a "howlet ?"
