Hey guys...here's another chance for you die hard VMFers to prove how much worthless information you have locked up in your skulls. Yes! It's another one of Phil (the worthless information King's) trivia challenges!
When we did this a few weeks ago for the first time, many of you complained that questions about people like Douglas Macarthur were unfair because they lived before your time. FYI he was before my time too. That's what Steven Ambrose and the History Channel are for. As per usual, please post back your score and remember...if I got any of my own questions wrong...DON'T BORE ME BY POSTING "FACTS" /forums/images/icons/tongue.gif. Good luck and remember NO WAGERING!
Ten More Things You Would Know if You Were Me:
1. Who was the third President of the United States of America?
2. What’s the chemical symbol for gold?
3. 3 cubed divided by 3 factorial equals what?
4. Who were the five main characters of Jonny Quest? (Don’t forget the dog)
5. Who were the four original members of Van Halen?
6. What’s the bore and stroke of a stock Ford 289?
7. Name the 9 members of The Fellowship of the Ring.
8. What U.S. currency has a picture of a car on it and what make is the car?
9. Under what conditions is the infield fly correctly called?
10. In the U.S. Navy, what is one rank below Admiral?
Answers Below.
Keep Going.
Just a little further!
Answers:
1. Thomas Jefferson
2. Au
3. 3 cubed = 27. 3 factorial = 3x2x1=6. 27/6= 4.5
4. Jonny Quest, Dr. Benton Quest, Hadji, Race Bannon, and Bandit. If you've never seen this cartoon be advised it was the greatest cartoon ever! Pirated VCD's are available on ...and my kids love them.
5. David Lee Roth, Michael Anthony, Eddie & Alex Van Halen
6. 4” x 2.87”
7. Gandalf, Aragorn, Boromir, Legolas, Gimli, Frodo, Sam, Pippen, Merry
8. U.S. $10 Bill. It’s a Huppmobile. What year? Beat’s the heck out of me.
9. Runners on 1st and 2nd, or 1st, 2nd and 3rd AND 0 or 1 outs. (fair) fly ball is hit where an infielder can catch the ball with normal effort. Infield fly is called. Batter is out IF ball is caught or ball lands in fair territory and is touched by a fielder (does not roll foul without being touched). Play continues. Runners may advance at their own peril, but are not forced to advance as they would be if the infield fly was not called.
10. Captain. Anyone in command of a ship is also called Captain regardless of rank.
So...post up...How'd you do???
p.s. Everyone have a good weekend. I'll be under my car installing my new fuel and brake lines (part of my interior restoration project now in it's 7th month). At least the sheet metal is all in. /forums/images/icons/smile.gif
