Trivia Question

[Sans Couth]

Actually that is what Gene said according to the transcript. However after he made that speach, he looked up and said [off the record]

"OK, let's get this mother out of here".

So I win:D

[sinton66]

How ya gonna prove it? I'd think a winning answer should be documented.:D But, you can go ahead if you wish.;)

[Sans Couth]

Proof on the way. Gimmie ten minutes.:D

[Sans Couth]

Here is the link (http://www.skygod.com/quotes/space.html) :p

[Sans Couth]

Besides,

It is Slpybear's question, I will wait for him to rule:nerd:

[sinton66]

Heh, heh.

Reportedly(astronaut Walter Cunningham in his book, 'The All-American Boys') the last words spoken on the moon.

However the transcripts show Cernan saying, "Okay. Now, let's get off. Forget the camera"

[Sans Couth]

Well I guess Slpybear fell asleep early last night. Maybe he will check in today.

[slpybear the bullfan]

Guys.... Let me clarify something... I probably should have done this earlier... Man first reached the surface of the moon while being inside the L.E.M. ... and man last was on the surface while he was inside the L.E.M....

Sorry about that... I had been given this trivia question by a former Mission Control worker..... should have been a little more clear.

Let me see if I can think of a good clue...

[crzyjournalist03]

oh...so they're both wrong!!!


how about, first words:

"Hey, this thing isn't made of cheese!"

Last words:

"Oh man, I think we left the golf cart out there!"

[Sans Couth]

Well if that's the case, then here we go.

First Words

"Contact Light"

Buzz Aldrin

Last Words

"3 2 1 "

Dr. Shcmitt

[slpybear the bullfan]

Very Close Sans Couth... Very close...

You got number one correct..

on number two, what comes after the countdown?

[Sans Couth]

"OK, Let's get off,...forget the camera."?

[Sans Couth]

Off topic, but I would like to include my favorite "space quote".

But why, some say, the moon? Why choose this as our goal?
And they may well ask, why climb the highest mountain?
Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas?

— President John F. Kennedy,

[crzyjournalist03]

I think the last word slpy is looking for is "liftoff"...but if I'm right, I'll let Sans Couth have it, because there's no way I could have gotten that close.

[Sans Couth]

top

[crzyjournalist03]

slpy...where are you???

[slpybear the bullfan]

Sorry guys, my wife took me out and I have been out of pocket...

The first word spoken from the surface of the moon was "Contact" which was part of the phrase "contact light" spoken when the crew of the LEM made the call on the first probe that touched the moon.

The last word spoken was the word "Ignition" which was spoke after the countdown to fire the Ascent engine.

The reason I brought up such archane trivia was because I had done the work to learn this after being told that the first and last words spoken on the moon were, "Houston." They almost were, but not quite.

BTW, if anyone else is as big a nut about the space program please help yourself to this site detailing a lot of the lunar surface exploration.

Sans Couth, you by far were the closest, its your turn!

Hint: "The Office of Strategic Operations" only exists in TV land.

[jason]

was it gilligan or the skipper??? :D

OK, You are on the right track as far as the character being fictional. Now think of someone that is worth a lot more money than gilligan.

[crzyjournalist03]

we took a guy out about a month ago, and after we explained to him what was going on, he didn't believe us...he was convinced that he really would catch a snipe!

[Old Tiger]

lol..it's funny to do it to people...but what's funnier when you get some people to go out there before you do and get them to run around and make noise and scare the crap out of 'em

[sinton66]

Originally posted by slpybear the bullfan

I'm not positive, but I'd guess Mourning Doves. Next best guess would be Quail.

[Sans Couth]

Another guess, unless my first one is not any good.

Wild Turkeys?

[SintonFan]

Since I was in the Cen Tex area... I would say Bald Eagles.
A great bird nontheless.:)
Oops, these are not gamebirds. They do mate for life if possible, I think.
Game birds???
Dang slpy...
How about geese as gamebirds? Don't they mate for life?

[Old Green]

I know they are not native to Texas but they are hunted here.

Sorry guys, I had to make a quick trip to my Grandma's to put out fertilizer. If you have a grandma that needs things done, "right away", then you will understand!

Yes, mourning doves are a game bird that have the same mating pair for life.

Sinton66, you are the winner!

[sinton66]

I'll pass my turn to Crzyjournalist.;)

But that is the only one right so far.

Hint.

Bosworth and Derrick Brooks

[Sans Couth]

Brian Bosworth in 86 is correct.

But Brooks is not correct.

Because if it is a trick question, I am going to say Aunt Bee from Mayberry RFD.

[BullFrog Dad]

Sans Couth, To the best of my knowledge it's not. If you think you have the answer throw it out there. You never know.

[BullFrog Dad]

When you hear of this baseball hall of famer you think he was part of a good battery although he never pitched or was a catcher.

[Sans Couth]

Can you give us a little more to go on? A Hint maybe?

[BullFrog Dad]

[Sans Couth]

Cal Ripken Jr.?

[BullFrog Dad]

No it wasn't Cal.

[crzyjournalist03]

Tony Gwynn?

[Sans Couth]

I am missing the battery reference, can you give another hint.

[BullFrog Dad]

No it wasn't Tony.

[BullFrog Dad]

Originally posted by Sans Couth

[sinton66]

I'm going to take a wild guess here because his name just sounds like he ought to be a pitcher. How about Goose Goslin?

[Sans Couth]

Goose played for 3 different teams, I think.

[Sans Couth]

How about

Stan the Man Musial?

[BullFrog Dad]

No it wasn't Goose or Stan. Here's another hint. This player was ever ready to help his team win.

[Sans Couth]

Is there a trick somewhere.

There are only a few Hall of Famers that played for the same team for exactly 22 years.

OK, This NFL hall of famer's cross-state rival had the same mascot as his college alma mater or was his college mascot his nickname? Who is he?

[Sans Couth]

Can you check your verbage, and make sure you are not tricking me?

Then I will give it my best shot.:D

[Sans Couth]

P.S.

What sport are we talking about here?

[crzyjournalist03]

are we talking about Mean Joe Greene???

[crzyjournalist03]

Ok...I've re-read the question and I know for a fact that it's Mean Joe Greene...the hall of fame player played his NFL career in Pittsburgh, so his cross-state rivals would be the Eagles, the mascot of his college, the University of North Texas. Due to his popularity, North Texas adopted "Mean Green" into their name in his honor, and it has stuck ever since.


I knew that going to UNT would pay off for me eventually...I just never knew it would happen so soon!:D :thumbsup:

[Sans Couth]

I think you got it.

Mean Joe Green played for the Mean Green, aka the North Texas State University Eagles.

While he was a Pro he played for the Pittsburgh Steelers from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, while his CROSS STATE Rivals would have been the Philidephia EAGLES.

Good Job Forney Dude. :D

Am I right?

[crzyjournalist03]

very good...Harry S Truman did not have a middle name (notice that there is no period after the "S" because it is not any sort of an abbreviation). He had a middle initial, but no middle name!

Carlos Baerga played for the Cleveland Indians and in 1993 he became the first player in MLB history to do this in a game. What did he do?

How many times did the Saints have a winning record during Archie Manning's career?

[Sans Couth]

Zero is correct.

I am not gettin touchy. It's just that we set up some ground rules for the game and everyone else seems to be practicing them. You just jumped in like a drunk at a party and changed the rules and acted like you had superior questions. If you want to challenge me with a question that you think I can't answer, then get in line, answer a question, and ask when it is your turn. Otherwise, sit back and enjoy the ride, but don't pretend that you are going to tell me how to play the game that I started.:p

[mwynn05]

what is the smallest country in the world?

[Old Green]

Vatican City

[Old Dog]

Sorry mwynn05, had not realized a question as well as my answer jumped over you! Please excuse me?

[crzyjournalist03]

darn...milliseconds too late on that one!!!

[Sans Couth]

I thought the smallest country in the world was Michael Jackson's Neverland :D

[crzyjournalist03]

well, we're all pretty sure it's Vatican City, so you're up Old Green.
