This is a trivia blog for trivia lovers. Trivia quizzes will (hopefully) be posted on a weekly basis, depending on popularity. Each quiz will have four categories which will vary each time. Each category will have one to two questions. Questions will be structured in such a way so that they will be very hard to look up on the Internet. Sorry cheaters! If you have suggestions for categories or questions, please email me at heather.borra@gmail.com.

Trivia Quiz Three


Welcome to The Trivia Exchange's second weekly quiz! This quiz will be open until Friday night at midnight. The winner (person with the most correct answers) wins one free song from iTunes! The winner will be announced next Saturday.

And now for the Quiz:

Languages

1) What is the primary language of Luxembourg (two possible answers for this one)

2) English is the fourth most commonly spoken language. What is the fifth?

Cats

1) As you might have read in my other blog, my cat had an eye infection this week. How many eyelids does a housecat have (per eye)?

2) True or False: Cats can smell through two different organs, the nose and an organ located in the bottom of the mouth.

Riddles

1) You are walking through a field, and you find something to eat. It doesn't have bones, and it doesn't have meat. You pick it up and put it into your pocket. You take it home and put it on a shelf, but 3 days later it walks away. What is it?

2) When Jerry, a lumberjack known for exaggeration, boasted (truthfully) of cutting down a 100 year old maple tree in ten seconds using only a small axe, his friend Mac had had enough. He challenged Jerry to prove his incredible claim. How had it been done?

L1 - I was going to guess Luxembourgish, but since you say there are two possible answers, I'll guess German.
L2 - Not a clue. I'll go with Hindi.
C1 - Three eyelids.
C2 - False. Their Jacobson's organ is in the roof of their mouth.
R1 - An egg.
R2 - Again, no clue. Was the tree already dead? About ready to fall over?
M1 - The 'burbs
M2 - Equilibrium

It seems I've been beaten to many of the answers, but here are mine anyway.

1. German and French

2. Let's see...the first four are Mandarin, Hindi, Spanish, English, so fifth should be Arabic, maybe?

1. Are they one of the beasts that have a third eyelid on each eye?

2. False

1. Wow. All I can think of is an egg, but it seems like it wouldn't hatch on a shelf.

2. I'm guessing that the maple was a specific type that is really small, because I can't think of anything else.

1. Running through a list of Tom Hanks movies in my head. Don't recognize this one right away. He's young. Perhaps The Money Pit. (I really have no idea)

2. Equilibrium
