I actually got sick of waiting for someone to get it right and looked it up myself. My research told me Collins as well.


Dinsdale calling you out for having the wrong answers in 3... 2... 1...

It's Tony Banks.

Nope.

This isn't something obsure, either.

It may have been approved by an act of Congress, but it was founded by TJ.

Try again.

He offered his personal library after the British burned the Capitol and the first library along with it in the War of 1812. He did not found the LoC.

So the present LoC was founded by Jefferson. Thanks for playing.

9. They are the same damn dam.

Must've missed that. Emmitt and Irvin are correct.

OCmike wrote:It's Tony Banks.

You are correct. The answer is indeed Tony Banks (in 96)... since surpassed by Collins and Culpepper.


Good thing I never claimed to be a good Googler.

I think you missed IndyFrisco locking in number 20 as well.


10. Edumund Fitzgerald

Not a trick question, the year is specifically stated in the question.

The Goya.

Need some clarification on the rule: is it > an hour between submitting correcting answers, or can a contestant submit once at, say, 9:59, then again at 10:01?

Dave Krieg?

Crap...read the question wrong. Doesn't Krieg have the all-time record for fumbles?

It's 60 minutes between correct answers.

He might have. I am pretty sure it's currently Moon. And Culpepper will pass them both if he starts another 5-6 years...

10. The sinking of the riverboat Sultana on 4/27/1865 - death toll: 1,547

Smackie Chan wrote:10. The sinking of the riverboat Sultana on 4/27/1865 - death toll: 1,547

Yep.

At least 1,547 people were killed when the boiler of the sidewheeler Sultana exploded on April 27, 1865, on the Mississippi River near Memphis, Tennessee. Many of those killed in the blaze where Union soldiers who had recently been freed from Confederate prison camps. The most unusual survival story was that of a man who used a knife to kill a live alligator that was in a wooden crate on board, then used the crate to float away.

RACK.


1948 as part of the AAFC. NFL didn't go to 14 games until the 60s.

Does the alligator make it 1,548?

Nope. Warhol designed and photographed "Sticky Fingers".

The 'Warholesque' cover art for "Some Girls" was designed by Peter Corriston.

Same guy who designed the "Physical Graffiti" album cover.

Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum

So me and Andy should at least be given partial credit.

Take a closer look:



It wasn't just Marylin Monroe. Lucille Ball, Raquel Welch and Judy Garland are featured. And while the design had a Warhol style, it is clearly not his work. No credit for Andy on this one.

Shortly after the release of this record, the covers were withdrawn and altered due to threats of legal action. Happily, I still have my copy.

20. Thurman Thomas




If that's correct, IndyFrisco gets credit.

It was the Goya, at close to 6,000:

Wait till Dinsdale sees this.

How thoroughly provincial.

That article on the Goya was a good read though. I'm thinking that falling 60 ft into 32 degree water feels well below average...

I'm thinking that falling 6 inches into 32 degree water sucks pretty horribly. The closest I ever got was about up to my boys in rapids to retrive a canoe some other fukks flipped. That water came from a lake with ice on it, so I doubt it was much above 35 degrees or so.

Yes, it was below average. Even though it was 26 years ago, I think that I am still suffering from shrinkage related to this event.

Perhaps you just have a small dick. Check with Irie Lagos if you want to know for sure.

McTubeSmoker should know. He's an expert on small hamster-sized cock.
