The answers to the last quiz...
Okay I'm coming back rather quick now, ain't I? Well, I've decided to let the quiz be online for the next 24 hours as well. The Woh Joe Quiz No 6 is open for answers until Jan 6 2005, 14:00 hrs (IST). So those who have around 7 answers right (wink, wink) have a chance to earn their first 100 off the blog. Now that's a decent extension, ain't it?
I was listening to Bob Dylan's 'Things Have Changed'. It was in a movie's soundtrack, the movie had Michael Douglas. Can you name it? (I'm not paying anyone for this) Rack your brains for this one, try not to use Google. They don't pay me anything you see. They call him the last great poet of the hippie generation, some go further and call him the greatest contemporary American poet. What movie had a class in English where they compared Bob Dylan and Dylan Thomas, the Irish poet? I can't help it, trivia spouts from the top of my head a few days a year. The movie we're talking about had a song that had a line taken from the Bible. Something to do with walking, shadows and some such. Talking about the Bible, what part of the Bible does Samuel L Jackson's character from 'Pulp Fiction' quote. We had a veejay by that name on one of our music channels a few years ago. I, of course, live in a time warp so am not quite reliable with my "few years ago" but we've had cable television for some 12 years or so, so I could be right.
Now I shall get back to my Bene Gesserit lessons. Kria if you're reading this you know what I'm reading.

I'm a cool savage and I'm playing truant....
Some people blog on a regular basis. I'm not one of them so I decided I'd put up a trivia quiz everyday. Now the problem was I needed a decent number of people coming in with responses so that I would be enthused enough to troll around and put up newer quizzes. I also thought that the lure of money would be strong enough for people to trundle in. What I forgot was that the net afforded me a large amount of annonymity and obscurity. I tried mass mailing and this did translate into a bigger number of hits and page views (you see those tools at the side, they do all the tracking for me) but answers, No. So now I've embarked on a "Hello, remember me?" mission. Going upto the blogs I used to frequently comment on and tell them that I'm alive. I've also decided to put up a few non quiz posts on a 'not very regular' basis. Maybe Ii'll talk about the industry I'm working in (like so many other bloggers around) or on social issues... No, I don't think social issues is my cuppa. I'll blog about what I do best, random 'charas'.
My photo and T-shirts are very misleading, so is my reputation. I'm a rather clean teetotaller and a vegetarian one at that. I encounter a lot of raised eybrows and gaping mouths when I tell junta about my eating and drinking habits. "Nah with that hair and beard, you don't look vegetarian." There was a time when I thought it was because I had a very 'I'll make do with anything' look on my face. You know the cool not so fussy look. But after a period of mulling over it I think these people are just hinting at the fact that I look like a savage. The mirror seems to ratify that. So now I'm a non-fussy savage. Does that sound cool enough??
PS: Ok I'm not playing truant, the quiz will be on and so will the answers on a regular basis. Just wondering, must I reduce the frequency of the quiz?

Who Joe Quiz Number 6
An easy quiz with one logic puzzle and one cricket question. It looks like a sure win. The bonus question does not count for money this time round, you'll figure out why.
1] Connect Wimbeldon, Wales and Snatch.
2] A sitter for any football follower. This nation, alongwith England has played international football for the longest period. Which national team are we talking about?
3] Yet another easy one. Who are the members of the G.I.R.L squad?
4] Connect John Frankenheimer, Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, Joe Carnahan and Tony Scott (some funda here)
5] "Short, broad chested with a large head; small eyes and a thin grey beard, he had a flat nose and a swarthy complexion, showing the evidences of his origin" This description is used to describe which king?
6] "Fast and the Furious" had its characters playing a video game on their Playstation in a couple of scenes. What game was it?
7] The US has the Big Foot, Nepal and India have the Yeti, what elusive legend does Australia have?
8] Lets hit some old world logic puzzle here "Five men are standing in a circle. They know they are wearing at least 2 white hats and at least 2 black hats. They do not know what colour hat they are wearing. How many of them will figure out what colour their hat is, if nobody says anything?" (An old quiz circuit favourite)
9] How did the antibiotic Bacitracin get its name?
10] I don't think we've had a cricket question this far. So here's to rectify the anamoly. An Australian team toured England in 1868, the first by any Australian cricket team. What as odd about the tour?
Bonus
Why do I have a Bonus question instead of Question No 11?

Answers to set 3
Good morning or whatever time of the day you're reading this. A particularly interesting and not so "Googlable" set this was. A few people I know called up to give their responses to the movie connection quizzes. The answers are out now. Taly your responses with the ones given and rent your frustration at those almost there answers.
1-We'll start off on a very relaxed note, who invented the rocking chair?
-Benjamin Franklin
2-After that lets get down to some serious trivia busting. Connect "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind" and "Being John Malkovich". The connection I am looking for is not just that they have the same director or crew, there is a funda connection.
-The title of the film is taken from an Alexander Pope poem called 'Eloisa to Abelard' and had been used previously by Kaufman in 'Being John Malkovich'.
3-In Minority Report the three precogs have something in common. What?
-The three 'Precognitives' featured in the movie have names inspired by famous mystery authors: Arthur Conan Doyle, Dashiell Hammett, and Agatha Christie.
4-Nostromo, Narcissus and Nebuchadnazzer. Pick the odd one out also kindly explain the oddness.
-Nostromo, Narcissus are ships from the Alien, Nebuchadnazzer was Morpheus' ship in the Matrix. Some would argue that the Nebuchadnazzer is the odd man out because the other two are books by Joseph Conrad, though you'd get the final answer correct the funda connection isn't that strong. What say?
5-Name this bond Villian (gimme the character and the actor)
-Scaramanga, Christopher Lee. The movie was "Man with a Golden Gun". Any bond fan should have gotten this one.
6- I decided to get cryptic here, just one of the variations I figured would make life funner. Each answer is a word made up of two separate words. I'll give you cryptic clues and a definition for the real word and its job to get the answer right?
So here goes. "Waste liquid of tree fruit, or a small statuette."
-Figurine. I don't think an explanation is warranted here.
7- This is a movie poster, a very scary movie it was. Gimme the name of the film.
-Rosemary's Baby. Very scary Roman Polanski film this is.
8- Yet another variation, the words given are the scrambled name of a person. A clue to the name is contained in the entry itself.
"Name land finder, gal"
-Ferdinand Magellan
9-This one is a bloody tough soccer one so all the soccer fans give it your best shot. Who has managed the most international teams?
-Rudi Gutendorf - 17 teams, Chile, Bolivia, Venezuela, Trinidad & Tobago, Grenada, Antigua, Botswana, Australia, New Caledonia, Nepal, Tonga, Tanzania, Ghana, Fiji, Zimbabwe, Mauritius and Rwanda he also took charge of the Iranian and Chinese Olympic teams in 1988 and 1992.
10- Getting back to normal trivia and an easy one at that. Initially elected in 1946, and ousted in 1955, this leader was again elected president of his country in 1973. Who are we talking about?
-Juan Peron
The Bonus One
This one is a bit off the trivia boat as well
What number is missing from this list?
8 5 4 _ 1 7 6
-9. The funda is sitter, commonly used trick at quiz contests where a simple question is squeezed in between or after a particularly torrid round.The numbers are in sequence of theway in which they apear in a dictionary.
