This List trivia
-
I looked at this, and started to try and figure it out. I figured most of the lists were lists of last names, but nothing jumped out at me and said, "I'm such-n-such." So I stopped trying.
I do like your trivia, even if I'm not always good at figuring out what it is.

Well, like I said, Khutchins got like half or more of the right. So, somebody got it.
(yes, they are lists of name. I thought that was obvious)

Hutchins got 8 right. (I want to know how she knew about the curlers)
And Yosemite....why don't you just admit that you are too stupid to know anything and leave it at that? (If what you said was funny, it would be forgiveable....but you committed the cardinal sin....you weren't funny)

I didn't watch a lot of curling but I did happen to watch a match with Rothlisberger, et al. and the obvious football-related comparison made an impression on me.

)please don't take this the wrong way either of you, but in my experience lawyers have a real affinity for recounting scads of anecdotal, everyday knowledge (that some also offhandedly refer to as "useless facts" or "Jeopardy questions"). you two seem no exception.
most of us collect info in areas that interest us, but so far the trivia hasn't seemed to dial in on mine yet. i'm optimistic in this regard and always check it out though.
well, there's that and my recall is not what it once was, due to some lifestyle choices.
P.S. overdue: i gave Avatar 3-D a 9.5 (fwiw i've never seen a "10" yet) but didn't see the 2-D version, so i can't fairly make a comparison to itself--only to the countless other titles i've seen. also to be taken fwiw, i've been a netflix subscriber since 2002, often at the 8-at-a-time rate, so i've seen a couple but it's still just opinion.
did you ever re-watch it in the 3-D format? if so, thoughts?
i'd like them to reissue the Spidey's in 3-D--i liked the whole trilogy and think the action would really "POP".
also off topic and unrelated yet possibly useful, i gave Alice in Wonderland 3-D a "6". the story was blah, but it was quite colorful and the costumes and CGI were awesome. i never knew i even had glasses on in Avatar, but the relative lack of action in Alice made me cognizant of the specs about every 5 mins. not worth 3-D though imo.

No time for movies.

I haven't seen Avatar in 3-D nor have I seen Alice at all. The local place where I see most of my movies doesn't have 3-D setup.

FWIW I'm not a lawyer.

I guess I might as well own up to the fact that I didn't really come up with the answers I submitted for this quiz. I sent the quiz by email to a friend of mine who I was sure would be able to come up with at least some of the answers fairly easily. He's a great guy and a great Browns fan, Collin Agee and he didn't let me down.
Do we get to know the correct answers?

2. hull, hunt, dye, grate, sellers
3. cherry, groom, hawk, wells, springs
4. glass, carpenter, hunter, banks, green, gain, plum
5. score, bell, grant, lemon, wise, black
6. beard, price, hill
7. furlow, free, cage, brewer, west
8. noble, polo, law, savage, rothlisberger
9. may, hunt, brewer, rice, born, west, worthy, sailors
10. park, burns, ball, white, braid, cotton, price, player
11. wall, wood, couples, archer
12. frame, rose, hill, ward, rice
13. budge, patty, cash, wood, gore, brooks
14. ball, chase, fish, gray, lake, white, sells
15. root, hull, butler, bunch, tutu

Thanks! I enjoyed that one. By the way, what I said about having watched curling was absolutely true. I'm not sure why it surprised me that there was another Rothlisberger but it did and it stuck in my head.
