Stitching Trivia Mavens!

Darn--Now I'm scared to do today's quiz lest I drag us down.

Well, you did play, and you didn't drag us down!! I sure wish I knew how some of you get such fast times. I keep my cursor over on the left side of the screen, try not to read the entire question and just click on the right answer. Of course all this blind guessing moves things along some! I have never heard of some of the books, games, actors, songs, sports people etc.

It is fun though, and I am certainly learning things. After the same question has popped up this week, I KNOW the second highest mountain!

I must admit that I never ever heard of Mt Potassium and apparently it didn't make any impression on me the first time it appeared. Maybe because I guessed right the other time and didn't pay much attention. Does anyone have a clue where it is?

Thanks. I guess I could have looked it up myself but that would have been the easy way.

Even with all the stress put on geography when I was a kid, it's obvious that I know little to nothing about the world.

That's interesting - when I placed the team vs team game a few minutes ago (3:18 pm. ) that wasn't one of the questions. I got 15 out of 15 - better than I usually do.

We generally do pretty well. We were #32 overall for February.

Sometimes you need to look at the name of the quiz for a hint. That one is Geography Meets Chemistry and is quite clever.

Wow, are you observant. I never put the two things together. Makes it a lot easier to guess, doesn't it. I knew they did that sometimes with the questions and I try to use logic (note I said try) but I missed the connection to the name of the quiz.

When it makes little or no sense, double check the name of the quiz or the catagory

Good heavens, no one drags us down! I was thinking what a great accumulation of players we're getting to have risen so high in the tables. Go us!

The reason I knew about K-2 was because an eight-year-old told me about it in 1984. He was in my Third Class and knew *everything* about mountains. He brought a papier mâché model of the Himalayas one morning for Show-and-Tell. When I asked him how he'd set about making it, he told me he'd followed a topographic map! This kid was the brightest kid I ever taught and whenever I think of mountains, I think of him.
