Well, the results are in and two of you partially answered last week's questions correctly. Congratulations to Sean and Ashley! So are you ready for the answers to last week's questions?
1. What would you find between the carapace and the plastron? Unless it's dead, a turtle or tortoise. (The carapace and the plastron are the two halves of a terrapin's shell.)
2. What unusual physical feature did Odin, in Norse myth, share with Polyphemus and the Graeae in Greek myth? They were the Peter Falks of European myth: only one eye apiece.
3. What unusual distinction is shared by these pop songs? The Band's "The Weight," the Beatles' "Yellow Submarine," the Carpenters' "Close to You," the Eagles' "Hotel California," Gary Lewis and the Playboys' "This Diamond Ring," Genesis's "Invisible Touch," the Romantics' "What I Like About You," and Yo La Tengo's "Little Eyes." Each song features lead vocals by the drummer of the band in question, so to that I say, go Christian go!
Thanks to all who participated. Are you ready for more? These may be a little easier than last week's questions . . . you be the judge.
1. The most famous portrait of whom was first titled "What Are You Doing for Preparedness?" when it debuted on a "Leslie's Weekly" magazine cover in July 1916?
2. The human - and canine - names of the Shaggy D.A. were…?
3. What is the world's first palindrome?
