In ten pin bowling, how many points would you have if you bowled a spare in the first frame, an 8 in the second frame and another spare in the third frame -3. How many Pleides are there? -4. What city is the setting for the movie The Third Man? -5. In Wagner's Ring operas, who kills Siegmund? (H-----) -6. What fictional country has inhabitants called Gillikins and Quadlings? -7. What flavor are Circus Peanuts supposed to be? -8. Where was Elvis first sighted after his "death"? (B----, M------) -9. From tip to bottom, what is the correct color order for candy corn? -10. Who was the first President to travel outside of the United States while he held office and where did he go?
