Trivia Tuesday

~ Once again, when we can't even manage to answer the first question correctly, you know it's going to be a rough night.  However, when the answer was read as The Honeymooners, I felt  little better knowing that the table next to us had never even heard of the show, and didn't know who Jackie Gleason was.  Seriously, people?

~ Luckily when the next Old TV questions were asked, they were quite easy - much easier than the very first question. I feel like the person writing the questions fell down on the job a bit this week!

~ Harrods is not the largest department store in the world, and the Chelsea Garden show is not the oldest garden show in existence.  Apparently the real world doesn't revolve around London - just my own little world does.

~ Sometimes it takes a village to name the team whose team colors are Sonoran red, and black.  I thought Arizona, someone else said Cardinals.  Then we decided the Cardinals were Arizona's football team. Someone else mentioned the razorbacks and then we finally concluded with Diamondbacks.  It took a while but we finally got there - I'm seriously considering changing our team name to the Long Processors...

~ It's always flipping Africa that trips us up (of course it wasn't only Africa that tripped us up tonight.  Apparently Kilimanjaro is in Tanzania - not one of the 15 other African nations we named.

~ Who knew that the .com in our email addresses meant commercial?  We could name what every other dot-address stood for but not the one everyone uses a million times a day. 

~ Knowing a bunch of stuff about medical things because I watch a lot of hospital shows comes in handy every once in a while.  Especially when no one thinks we're going to get the question right because the bio teacher isn't there this evening.  Yay for Hepatocytes being in the liver! And yay for "hepa" meaning pertaining to the liver. I love English much more than science!

~ We have NO idea was an actual answer we turned in this evening.  Yep, it was that kind of night. 

~ On the other hand, we've NEVER gotten all the half time questions correct before so go figure...
