Trivia
So, Raymond asked me when I'd write here again. It's been quite a while, and I told him that I felt too awed by the other co-writers since they're so good, so he told me to feel free to write something trivial.

Ahh...trivial..just my cup of tea. Heh. But instead of trivial, why not talk about trivia instead. Do you like trivia? Are you the sort of person who tunes in to Jeopardy or Who Wants to be a Millionaire and can actually give the correct answer to the questions? It's weird how the brain can pick up all sorts of interesting stuff even if you don't order it to. Trivia. All the little pieces of information that you know you absolutely have no use for, unless you're planning to join game shows, but get stuck in your brain anyway.

So just for fun, let's test your braintrapping skills! Post your answers in the comment box and the winner gets to be queen/king for the day. Heh.

1. Who was the first actor to be given a posthumous Oscar award?

2. What does James bond drink, and how does he take it?

3. Who was the first lady who led the first televised tour of the White House?

4. Who was the first African-American news co-anchor on a local US TV station?

5. Who appeared on the first cover of "Rolling Stone" magazine, which debuted on November 9, 1967?

6. This is the symbol for tin.

7. Which state was briefly known as "The Bear Flag Republic"?

8. How much internal memory did the early personal computer, the Sinclair ZX80, have?

9. Which river contains the most fresh water?

10. Name the world's most photographed and most climbed mountain.

Have fun!
