Quiz? We don't NEED no stinkin quiz!!

Congrats to Kat for winning last week with an 80%!
Second place was a four way tie which I am giving to Weirsdo, because she left a lovely Odeo.
She played Happy Birthday for Thing One who loved it.
She even beat out the Aged Ps this way (that would be the grandparents).
Odeo, people, the button is other there for a reason! Talk to me!


OK, I had every intention of having a quiz ready for you, but when I lost the whole blankety-blank thing as I was typing the BANKETY-BLANK last question! So I gave it the BLANK up!!
(Doing my yoga breathing now)
ok, much better.

Instead, I am going to let you people ask the questions.
Anything you'd like to ask? Feel free.

Ok, question number 1: What does "Glitnir" mean in English? I´d really like to know, ´cause they named my bank that now and I am upset!!!

Doug The Una said...

Dang. I'm down like 20 points from last week.

S said...

OK now, I wanna know, since there's no quiz, can I be the winner this week please? :P

Minka~ Glitnir is not English, sorry. I could tell you a few bad words instead.

Doug~ But you are cuter than ever!!
(scratch scratch)


Susie~ Sure, you always a winner to me!

Village~ African or European?

How long is the gestation period of a bumblebee?

Hey, as a dog, I noticed you use a lot more cliches than most dogs..whats that all about?

Anonymous said...

Rio! The gestation cycle of a bumblebee is approximately 2 to 3 weeks. We loved cliches, they are like pret a porter for your words.
Everyone should have some!

Where is my TV remote? I'm no fun. I'll think of something better.

Anonymous said...

Grunt~ The easy answer is where ever you left it. I'd check between the cushions if I were you.

Sar said...

I'm so relieved that I don't have to proove my intelligence inadequate again this week. *sigh* So my question is, how'd you know?

Stephanie said...

What would you do for a Klondike Bar??

Anonymous said...

Sar~ I am just intuitive, I guess.

Snav~ In general, or with you?

egan said...

Logo, what's your favorite museum in Seattle and why?

The Grunt said...

Hey, you were actually right on, Logo.

Here's a real deep thinkers question: What does the Puget Sound like?

Anonymous said...

Egan~ oooooooh, that is a good question!! I do soooo love the Seattle Art Museum, can't wait for the expansion to be done. BUT they are currently closed, the Asian Art Museum is also pretty cool, but I prefer the more eclectic approach. I am going to the Burke later this week and haven't been there since I was a kid. If that becomes my fav I will let you know.

Grunt~ Glad I could help ya out.
The Puget Sounds different based on your location. The one thing it never sounds like is thundering surf, for that you have to head over to the coast.

egan said...

Soon you will be able to visit the SAM Monument Park. I think SAM will be sharing space with the Seattle Asian Art Museum. Have fun this week!

Anonymous said...

Egan~ I kinda miss the museums in Europe, I feel ever so slightly disloyal to criticize my beloved SAM, but well, hopefully the expansion will really help.

egan said...

Yep

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? Just curious. :P

egan said...

Logo, what's your favorite prime number? Do you prefer loose leaf tea or do you like to teabag?

Anonymous said...

BS~ If he could chuck wood, a woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could.

Egan~ I love 104729 although 69691 is fun too. I prefer the loose leaf tea, but will sometimes take the alternative if I need to.

lime said...

hey i just got home from a field trip with 4th graders. 4 hrs on a school bus, my brain is fried. glad not to have tohandle a quiz today.

egan said...

And what exactly do you mean by "the alternative"? Please do share. Are you going to explain what teabagging is for the class?

Anonymous said...

Egan~ What do you mean, I am talking about tea in bags, not loose leaf, what are you talking about?

S said...

Ack, someone find some toys for Egan!

Anonymous said...

Lime~ Welcome home! You made it, well done! Survival is the most you can ask for sometimes.

Anonymous said...

Bare! I missed your comment somehow, I think Egan thinks he already found somthing interesting to toy with, he should be careful.

egan said...

Oh really? Is this a G-rated blog or something? I thought it was at least R-rated, but then things just sort of disappear.

egan said...

But in case you are still wondering about Logo's tea preferences.

teabagging:

To have a man insert his scrotum into another person's mouth in the fashion of a teabag into a mug with an up/down (in/out) motion.

Man: Let's teabag!
Your Daughter: Okay!

Anonymous said...

Egan~ Why, I have no idea WHAT you are talking about. Disappearing posts? I see no disappearing posts!
And I am shocked, shocked at that kind of refence. Tea, whether in bags or not should not be dunked, boiling water should be poured over it and it should be left to steep, NO dunking. Clearly that reference was developed by some ignorant person and you should refrain from using it. It reflects poorly on your taste in tea, Lipton boy.

egan said...

As long as you don't call me Bigelow Butt, I am fine.

egan said...

... or Republic of Pee.

DaMasta said...

If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, how many pecks would Peter Piper pick?

I'm uh.. just curious, too. :P

egan said...

If I have offended any readers of this blog, I apologize. Logo didn't put me up to this at all and nor did she egg me on. I am 100% serious.

Anonymous said...

Aw, isn't that nice of the Prince of the Republic of Pee?
You are such a boy sometimes.

Damasta~ Why you wanna come in here with all that dirty talk, I am SHOCKED!! :p

Anonymous said...

Ooops, Egan, that should read
NICE boy, you are such a NICE boy sometimes.

babyjewels said...

I never knew what teabaggin was. Thank you, I think.

Now for my question: will you hold me? I'm scared.

Anonymous said...

Babyjewels~ Feel free to forget what it mens straight away. Will I hold you, absolutely!
Now, are you looking for a comfort-giving cuddle, a sensuous sort of snuggle, a heimlich kind of deal? Are you looking for a patting motion on the pat? Details, please, we aim to please here at Dog's Life but we have to have the details.

What is Bunnicula?

And how'd you get to be so pretty AND smart?

Anonymous said...

Teacher's pet~ Thanks!
From Amazon~
This immensely popular children's story is told from the point of view of a dog named Harold. It all starts when Harold's human family, the Monroes, goes to see the movie Dracula, and young Toby accidentally sits on a baby rabbit wrapped in a bundle on his seat. How could the family help but take the rabbit home and name it Bunnicula? Chester, the literate, sensitive, and keenly observant family cat, soon decides there is something weird about this rabbit. Pointy fangs, the appearance of a cape, black-and-white coloring, nocturnal habits … it sure seemed like he was a vampire bunny. When the family finds a white tomato in the kitchen, sucked dry and colorless, well … Chester becomes distraught and fears for the safety of the family. "Today, vegetables. Tomorrow … the world!" he warns Harold. But when Chester tries to make his fears known to the Monroes, he is completely misunderstood, and the results are truly hilarious. Is Bunnicula really a vampire bunny? We can't say. But any child who has ever let his or her imagination run a little wild will love Deborah and James Howe's funny, fast-paced "rabbit-tale of mystery." (Ages 9 to 12)
Great series for kids, quick, easy independent reads.

I was born purty, the smart took work :p

Hi Logo! Thanks for stopping by my blog! "Pull chocks" sure brought back the crew chiefing days (yep, the chock-puller was me!)

I have a Q. OK 2. What's the recipe for a Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster? And do you know where your towel is?

Anonymous said...

Candace~ Hello, and welcome to my blog!
I confess, I had to look it up for the details, but here it is...
Take the juice from one bottle of that Ol' Janx Spirit.
Pour into it one measure of water from the seas of Santraginus V. (Oh, that Santraginean seawater. Oh, those Santraginean fish!)
Allow three cubes of Arcturan Mega-gin to melt into the mixture (It must be properly iced or the benzene is lost).
Allow four litres of Fallian marsh gas to bubble through it. (In memory of all those happy hikers who have died of pleasure in the Marshes of Fallia.)
Over the back of a silver spoon float a measure of Qalactin Hypermint extract. (Redolent of all the heady odors of the dark Qualactin Zones.)
Drop in the tooth of an Algolian Suntiger. (Watch it dissolve, spreading the fires of the Algolian Suns deep into the heart of the drink.)
Sprinkle Zamphuor.
Add an olive.
Drink carefully, it is the alcoholic equivalent of a mugging, expensive and bad for the head.
And I always know where my towel is!
