  1. Who cares? Name all the actors in the Dirty Dozen.

  2. Come on! Can we get off of sports please?

  3. Yay! 42 seconds. I’ve been waiting for this one. :)

    I, for one, am enjoying this little conference series. It isn’t replacing the lunchtime quiz, and it’s a fun minute for us college sports junkies.

    And, Go Big Red!

  4. For the gentlman above:
    Telly Savalas
    Charles Bronson
    Jim Brown
    Earnest Borgnine
    Lee Marvin
    John Cassavetes
    Donald Sutherland
    Robert Ryan
    Clint Walker
    Richard Jaeckel
    Ralph Meeker
    Trini Lopez
    George Kennedy was the general, and I don’t know who all played the Germans (you didn’t ask for the actors playing the Dozen specifically, you said all the actors).

    For the lady above, how about the five mother sauces of French cuisine:
    Hollandaise
    Bechamel
    Veloute
    Espagnole
    Tomato

    Or pehaps the Seven Deadly Sins
    Pride
    Gluttony
    Wrath
    Lust
    Envy
    Greed (Avarice)
    Sloth

    Maybe the Eightfold Noble Path is more your speed:
    right view
    right intent
    right speech
    right action
    right livelihood
    right effort
    right mindfulness
    right concentration

    I LIKE the conference quizzes, and it’s the beginning of March Madness. Cut them some slack. I’d like to see the Missouri Valley represented before it’s said and done, or maybe a monster quiz with all the men’s (or women’s) NCAA tournament winners.

    Keep up the good work.

  5. 37 seconds! Would have done better if I could type properly.

    No PAC-10 quiz tomorrow? Gotta at least get the five major conferences in! Would be unfair to leave out the left coasters.

  6. Yes, got it done in less than a minute! This is a good mental exercise. Why the hate for sports? If you don’t like it, don’t do it. Make up your own. I think that you don’t look at the glass as being half empty, you look at is as being broken.
