  1. Quiz #9....Name this game show where it had contestants pitting against each other to test their knowledge in tunes?!

    1. Nadine

      Nadine

      name that tune

    2. JPPT1974

      Very good Nadine. Loved that show as a kid!

      I remember that show. I'd do alright on a music based program. Not singing. Just recalling verses or stanzas etc. 

       

      It's been proven that music sticks in a person's brain extremely well. If you memorize something to music, you'll never forget it. 

  2. Quiz #8....What does S.V.U. stand for in the Law and Order show?!

    1. NFLfan

      NFLfan

      Special Victims Unit?? It is a wild guess. I have not watched Law and Order in a few years.

      I watch SVU regularly. A show with dark tones exceptionally well written. I've watched it from it's inception & I appreciate the sophistication of it's scripts. Not a fan of Rap/Hip Hop, but I respect Ice T as an actor. He's very believable on screen. 

       

      SVU is the best show D**k Wolf has ever produced IMO & I will checkout his new show "FBI" on CBS this Fall too. 

  3. Quiz #6....Who was the Author of the Miniseries in Quiz #7? Hint it was also a best selling book.

  4. Quiz #7 What is the groundbreaking TV miniseries that had Levar Burton, Leslie Uggams, Louis Gossett Jr, Lloyd Bridges, Chuck Connors back in 1977?! It was on ABC TV! 100M People watched it for those nights.

      Indeed it was that of Roots

    3. southwest1

      Roots was very well done. And Levar Burton went on to bigger & better things like "Star Trek: The Next Generation" & "Reading Rainbow" baby. 

  5. Quiz #5 Speaking of Popeye what is the name of the jeep that is magical on the show?!

      Lesley Stahl? I think that Mike Wallace was also on 60 Minutes then.

    3. JPPT1974

      JPPT1974

      It was Mike Wallace and Harry Reasoner. RIP!

    4. southwest1

      Mike Wallace was one hades of an investigate reporter. He sat down with everybody. Kings, presidents, dictators, politicians, you name it. 

       

      Mike didn't take grief from anybody & he knew how to challenge heads of state when he thought he wasn't being told the truth. Man, I wish reporters today had half the courage & moxy Mike did. Journalists have no teeth anymore. 

  10. July last month of Football less month and the Question thing after a very long hiatus now is back!

      I have had 2 in my life. Last one I had was in 2008, so it's been 10 years ago. I was going 82 in a 70 MPH on the interstate. State Police got me. The guy came up on me chewing on a toothpick with thick dark sunglasses on. He was young so I knew I was screwed. The other one I got, I was in Highschool, just got my license. That was a 57 in a 40. That was back in 1989.

      No, I drive like an old lady but my husband has.  One time he was listening to a baseball game and not paying attention to his speed.

       

      It was expensive.  

    4. southwest1

      southwest1

      Luckily, I've never be busted for speeding by the police. I probably just jinxed myself by saying that now. Never tempt fate folks. She does not have a sense of humor as all.

       

      Sorry to hear about your ticket JPPT. That's an expensive lesson we all would like to avoid. Not a reflection on you at all. God knows, I got away with a few highway infractions that I probably shouldn't have in the past. Hang in there my friend.

      You know where you hear a song it's original form by the actual artist & it bothers you because you know it sounds familiar but from where? I'm referring to Billy Stewart's classic "Summertime" BTW.

       

      Then, it hit me. "Stuck On You" the movie starring Matt Damon & Greg Kinnear with actress Meryl Streep...Want proof?

       

       

      Whew, now I feel better. You really perplexed me on that one for a minute JPPT. :D

  16. Happy Mother's Day! For mothers and for soon to be ones or ones that have passed on living in your hearts. BTW any plans over on it?!

    1. Nadine

      Nadine

      early mothers day celebration helping my daughter landscape her new home. I told her she's not my responsibility any more but, she rejects that notion

    2. JPPT1974

      JPPT1974

      Cute Nadine really cute! Happy Mother's Day!

    3. southwest1

      southwest1

      I'm a little late to the party here, but yes, mothers deserve to be honored for all the headaches we put them through as kids. The day itself is commercialized like crazy today. Having said all that, I agree with the notion of recognition & props for moms everywhere both here & departed unfortunately. 

  17. Will do in May a month long tribute to Prince and George Michael RIP!

  18. Anybody that grew up in the 1980's heard of in the Generation X for "Schoolhouse Rock" on ABC TV. For those that are not familiar with it, it is about songs with educational purposes. Back during simple times...oh well!O.o As the person who wrote songs like these just died at 93! RIP!

      Not really Schoolhouse Rock but if you are in the 1974 which I was born that year, showing my age LOL. But really remember these simple times. 

  19. Anybody a fan of ABC's Scandal? It is the finale. Thought I would give you all the heads up?!
