1.January 30, 1933 was the day the words "_____ __ _______! _____! were first heard as new radio program debuts. What were the words, and what was the program? Fbone "Hi yo, Silver! Away!" The Lone Ranger 2. What is the largest milk producing country by volume in the whole world? Fbone India 3. What is the most common birth name in the world. Bilbo Mohammed 4. Which animal can go without water longer than a camel. Bookpossum giraffe 5. How old is the Earth? (Extra credit if you know its birthday.) Shayne 4.5 billion years. Plus extra credit! Unless my math is off (which never happens... ) our next Quizzmaster will be Fbone with two correct answers. Shayne was close with 1.5 Stitchawl (off to walk! "Hi yo, Silver! Awayyyyyyyy!) |
