Thursday, April 19, 2007QUIZ TIME - PRIZES OFFERED!!!I've copied this from the Chiel's column in the Daily Dispatch. Just a quick quiz to lighten the mood & take your mind off other stuff. No cheating please & no Googling for answers! 1. Name the one sport in which neither spectators nor participants know the score or the leader until the contest ends. 2. What famous North American landmark is constantly moving backward? 3. Of all vegetables, only two can live to produce on their own for several seasons. All others must be replanted every year. What are the only two perennial vegetables? 4. What fruit has its seeds on the outside? 5. In some liquor stores, you can buy pear brandy with a real pear inside the bottle. The pear is whole and ripe, and the bottle is genuine; it hasn’t been cut in any way. How did the pear get inside? 6. Only three words in standard English begin with the letters “dw” and they are all common words. Name two of them. 7. There are 14 punctuation marks in English grammar. Can you name at least half of them? 8. Name the only vegetable or fruit that is never sold frozen, canned, processed, cooked, or in any other form except fresh. 9. Name six or more things that you can wear on your feet beginning with the letter “S”.
