Trivia Tuesday’s
Trivia is just another form of random shit, so you know I love it. Useless knowledge can help you impress people, or win shots at a bar. It’s win-win all around. So try your hand at these questions…. NO GOOGLING!!! I’ll post the answers in the comments section later today…
1) What is the only sport where neither the spectators nor the participants know the score until the game is over?
2) There are only three common words in the English language that start with “Dw,” name them.
3) Name the U.S. states with only 4 letters used in their name.
4) How many push-ups do young female recruits have to do in two minutes to pass U.S. Army basic training? How about their male counterparts?
5) What is the only country in the Middle East that does not have a desert?

Don’t worry, I get the “letter” thing, I still think it should be included.

I know, I mentioned Ohio when I was going through it too, I guess it’s because it has to have 4 diff, no more no less. Ohio gets shafted again

OK Ohio haters – without Ohio there would be no me, Wright brothers (first in flight), Senator/astronaut John Glenn, Commodore Oliver Hazzard Perry (War of 1812 – “Don’t give up the ship!”), Paul Newman, Chrissie Hynde – to name a few of the great ones from that state.
