Trivia thread -

mousepod · 08-03-2005, 04:29 PM

I love brain-teasers and trivia questions, so I figured I'd start a thread.

Here are the only rules:

1 - You can only post a question if you are also willing to post the answer in say, a day. No fair leaving us hanging.

2 - If you're really good at google searching, give the rest of us a little while to figure it out before you post the answer.

(or maybe we could just use spoiler tags)

Here's one to get the ball rolling (it's Disney, so it should be fairly easy for most of us):

What popular Disney theme features the lyric: "Take a tip from the birds ... you don't need words"?

Just a guess:

I cry foul. "Popular"?

Not Afraid · 08-04-2005, 11:53 AM

HEHEHEHE. I know what it is.

But, I don't want to think up another trivia question.

Can another question be posted before the previous one was answered?

Edited to add: Apparently it was answered so here goes... (I wonder if this is too easy)

In Mr. Toads Wild Ride, there appears a silhouette of a very well-known, non-disney related, fictional character. You can see this person looking out one of the windows. Who is it?

Obviously, 'Name' got it right. Sorry for the obvious misleading question - I wanted it to look like I got the words wrong.

As far as the second question goes:

Spoiler:

Here's another: What happened at Barney's Place?

Motorboat Cruiser · 08-04-2005, 01:52 PM

You are correct, mousepod. I knew it was too easy.

mousepod · 08-04-2005, 02:18 PM

It wasn't too easy! It just happened to be a nugget that was lodged in my brain. Keep 'em coming - this could be fun.

BTW, my last question is Disney-related as well...

Not Afraid · 08-05-2005, 02:14 PM

OK. I know the Barney's Place answer, but I promissed not to answer it. (and, No, it's not about Barny's Neew York

)

But, I WILL come up with an alternate question:

There was once a Gazebo on Main Street. It was moved several times. Name the a) First location, the b) second location and c) where it resides now.

As far as the second question goes: Spoiler: It's Sherlock Holmes. And I'm guessing it's because Basil Rathbone was the narrator for the Wind in the Willows half of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.
