Triviage by Aldousage

1 point per correct answer. 5 points wins the game. First correct answer gets the point - if posted within the same minute, each poster gets a point.

One:
What Australian 80s band released "Be Good Johnny"?

 

Men at Work


What Aussie released "Looking for Butterboy"1997?

Dude....you need more info...do we ask the next question or what?

 

BBAD picks up the first point.

BBAD: 1

Two:
What is the country formerly called New Guinea now called?

Notes:
Well, actually just the Eastern half of what was formerly called New Guinea (the entire land mass is still known as New Guinea). I'LL ask the questions here, Sparky!

:cheers2:

 

East New Britain


Finally a thread I can win on

 

Wrong, but a pretty good guess.

East New Britain is a province within the country in question (but not on the same land mass - there's a hint).

 

Dont they still call it Papua New Guinea?

 

There you go!

Bit of a trick question. The "Papua" is new.

BBAD: 2

Three: What are the first names of Fidel Castro's two brothers?

 

ramon and raoul

 

Raul and Ramon. I did a paper in my Political Science Seminar class about what would happen in Cuba if and when power was passed from Fidel. I was wrong, I figured Fidel for lasting until he died.

 

I have to give it to chuckf2000 for spelling "Raul" correctly.

BBAD: 2

chuckf2000: 1

Four: Name two nineteenth to twentieth century British empiricist philosophers.

Notes: A bit of a highbrow question to stir things up a little.

 

Uh-oh.

Need an easier one...?

 

Okay.

New Question Four:
Name four movies starring (or co-starring) Adam Sandler.

 

Happy Gilmore
The Waterboy
The Wedding Singer
and my favorite

Fifty First Dates


I Win

BBAD picks up another point.

BBAD: 3

chuckf2000: 1

sdnq: 1- (docked one point for being a negative nancy)

Five:
British guitarist (among many other instruments) whose best-known work is a 1970s record that rhymes with "Doob, you are smells"

Notes: Googling is allowed on this one. Good luck.

 

Dude you better take my points away if you think I wasn't using Google........

 

I'd need proof before I would do that.

 

Here ya go
