                            THE KITCHEN SINK

     Well, there is a little bit of everything in this movie quiz.  I'll admit
that I have stolen large amounts of the questions from different sources, but
how much trivia is really original anyway. In putting this together I've used
information from at least three different books, a bit from Trivial Pursuit,
and I don't remember where I got the rest.  All I can tell you is that it will
help if you like John Landis, the movie "Scavenger Hunt", and the Lone Star
State.  The prizes are announced at the end. Good luck and let's be careful 
out there.
