Each semester, Brown holds a campus-wide trivia contest. We thought it might be fun to send out the questions from this semester 1 hour at a time (there are 8 hours). Many of the questions and most of the memorials will make no sense, but they've been left in for the benefit of possible alumni reading the net. Each hour will have a bonus section and 15 regular questions - one cosmic every 4 hours, one galaxian and super-galaxian for all 8 hours. Please mail me your answers. Results for the first hour will be posted in late January. Disclaimer - many comments may seem offensive. No comments are intended to offend people, but to remain in the spirit of rude and disgusting subject matter. allegra!brunix!giw ------------------------------ Hour 1 - the Other Garbage Hour Bonus for hour 1 Questions: 1: The Saturday Night Live section: a) In what town do the Coneheads live, and for whom does Beldar work? b) What is the name of the little girl who goes to see the 'child psychiatrist,' and what does she pick out to represent herself? c) Where do the following people live and what do they have in common: Richard Feder, Bob van Rye and Doris Powell 2: In the movie "The President's Analyst," in what town does the 'typical American family' live? 3: In the Odd Couple in which Felix and Oscar died, what did they each die of? 4: Give the subject of the following magazines: a) It's Me b) A+ c) Microkids d) Fastbreak 5: What do the movies "Cry of Battle" and "War is Hell" have in common? 6: What is unusual about the stretch of I-95 between exits 6 and 7 in Rhode Island?
