Back after a hiatus.......went to a coupla quizzes...........some gems from them......
1. Link johnnie walker,trainnasaurus rex ( forgive the spellling!) ,princess diana spencer, and the tasmanian devil.
2. A recent adline for a bike......we slow down to 1.8 kmph in tribute to this great event. what event ?
3. easy one.......give me an indian name that connects a sarus crane and an anthill.
4. The headmaster of the Evangelical Lutheran Mission Fabricius Higher Secondary School in Madras clears his throat with a cough and says in a weak voice: "I am told that he came back once to look at his old school, yes."
"When?"
"In 1998. But it was the summer holidays then, and everything was closed shut. So he had to turn and go back home."
the headmaster is talking about his most famous alumni on his only visit to the school after passing. Who?
5.. When Ram was in exile ("banvaas") with Sita and Laxman, the local woman cast
aspersions on Sita for living with two men. Sita in return cursed the women that
they will have multiple husbands. Which place (according to one of the versions)
gets its name from this?
easy qns....tougher ones later........
btw i will be conducting a quiz in my coll....if any of u guys know of some good quizzing links....pls let me know............

We've all heard that half a million monkeys banging on a million typewriters will eventually reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. Now, thanks to the Internet, we know that's not true.
