Try your hand at these brain-busting trivia questions. Remember, please, that you may not google or use any reference sources for the first 24 hours of this thread.

-1. What fictional character got his first name from a cricket star and his last name from a U.S. Supreme Court justice? [Hint: S H]
-2. What adjective describes a North African coast, and from there has been used for pirates, apes, sheep and lions?
-3. If you have a fever, you'd know what Norma Egstrom's stage name was. What?
-4. What comic strip features Phil, Ruler of Heck and Prince of Insufficient Light, who carries a spoon instead of a pitchfork?
-5. Which planet is closest to Earth?
-6. What Marx Brother never appeared in the movies, but instead became a dressmaker and Groucho's agent?
-7. What ancient civilization had a Memphis of its own, although its music scene was probably nowhere near as good?
-8. Anastrophe what "Star Wars" character often uses?
-9. In 2004, what new piece got added to the game Operation?

Note: 5. Do you mean closest right now or the orbit that is nearest Earth's orbit? It's possible that it is the same planet at this time...I don't know.

Edit: Or maybe part of the difficulty of the question is to figure that out. grin

To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self.
