Trivia Tuesday

~ Survey says "Top Gun" is  infinitely better than "Ghost."  (I agree with this completely, even though both movies have made me cry.)

~ Finally, Finally (Finally!) a Shakespeare question and I knew the answer.  Wahoo!  Titus Andronicus is the deadliest play and portrays someone being baked into a pie.  Apparently, Sweeney Todd wasn't so ahead of its time.

~ Tiger Woods' actual first name is Eldrick.  This is completely new information, that I'm still not sure wasn't made up for tonight's trivia.  I've never heard his name was anything besides Tiger - ever.  But I gotta say, if my name was Eldrick, I'd probably change it to Tiger too.

~ The Green Party candidate received 1.2 million votes and Bob Barker started hosting The Price is Right in 1972.  Also, the question having to do with TV Cars was on the Dukes of Hazard.  All of these things were pulled out of thin air tonight, by me.  So - I really should be playing the lottery, right?

~ There are apparently 2 time zones in Florida.  Who knew?  I sure didn't.  I'm still trying to do the geographical math on that one.

~ Even a shot that tastes like Pineapple Upsidedown cake, and looks like a sunset, will taste terrible.  I just don't understand you people that drink these things.  Wouldn't you rather drink something refreshing that won't give you a headache - like Iced Tea?

~ The Jarls are the aristocratic class of vikings.  Do you want to know how we got that answer?  Jarslberg cheese is a fairly pricey cheese so it must be upper class...I'm not saying there's a method to our madness.  I'm just saying we got 8 points from it.

~ Some crazy lady ate 222 canned peas in 3 minutes using a toothpick to spear them.  Setting aside the random amount of time and the random eating instrument, why in god's name would anyone want to break a record by eating peas?  I would like to break a record by NEVER eating peas.  Those things are awful!

~ As good as my streak was this evening, it would seem I do have kryptonite.  The opposite of oxidization is not anti-oxidization (get it?  anti-oxidants? : )  Apparently it's galvanization.  
~ It's a given when "You've lost that loving feeling" comes on in a bar, everyone is going to sing and everyone who isn't singing is most likely quoting Top Gun.
