When I lived in Davis and when we were entertaining friends and family at Thanksgiving I would always try to entertain our guests with a postprandial quiz of my own devising. I would wait until the guests had eaten their fill in order to ensure their near-comatose state forbids them an easy escape.
In this quiz (scroll down for answers ), all of the answers sound a bit like 'Thanksgiving'. A couple of examples…
Question: What prison inmates might be doing today?
Answer: Shanksgiving
Question: One way of describing the gifts and other objects that are donated at Christmas?
Answer: Thingsgiven
You get the idea now? Okay so here ten more questions (the last one is particularly cryptic)…
- What might you call it if you bought someone a Panzer or a Sherman as a gift?
- This is what would happen if Dracula gave away his dentures?
- The unlikely event that would occur if Wall St institutions donated their profits to charity?
- The butcher's cold store has just been furnished with several sides of beef.
- Throughout his life, Mr Sinatra raised millions of dollars for good causes.
- What would you call it if lots of women suddenly returned the same type of skimpy undergarment to Victoria's Secret?
- What happens when up and coming musicians have to rely on financial contributions from their supporters?
- I appreciate you all coming here today. It pleases me immensely. I'm much obliged. I owe you all a debt of gratitude.
- Sometime I wonder about bestowing gifts upon people.
- Big actor donates to charity
