Question Time

Try and answer these questions without referring to the internet - and then leave me a comment with your answers. Yes, you can use the help of a work colleague or a family member.

  • Who succeeded George Bush senior as US President?
  • What vegetable gives Popeye his strength?
  • What colour is the famous rectangular border around the cover of National Geographic magazines?
  • Who played the part of Mick "Crocodile" Dundee in each of the three movies?
  • How many crew members does the US Air Force's surveillance aircraft, the Global Hawk, carry?
I'll post the answers later, along with the names of a) those who answered the most questions correctly and b) the person who provides the wittiest wrong answer.

Yes, I know it's been a while since the last quiz, so I do apologise. Five bloggers had all the right answers to the last Question Time quiz - they were Katy Did Not, Sharon, Bart, Daryle and Such Simple Pleasures.

The questions were: 1. How many in a baker’s dozen? 2. Who created the "Dennis the Menace" comic strip? 3. Which US astronaut was a senator from 1974 to 1999? 4. On which fictional street is "Desperate Housewives" set? 5. In which country was Oscar winner Russell Crowe born?

The answers were: 13, Hank Ketcham, John Glenn, Wisteria Lane and New Zealand.
