I love posting quizzes but I do realize that many of them are extremely difficult as reflected by some of the readers who have complained. I decided today to post question’s from the 1990’s that should be somewhat easier to answer. There are eleven questions with the correct answers listed below.

  • Who became the first president of Russia after the Soviet Union dissolved in 1990?
  • In Harry Potter/Sorcerer’s Stone, who gives Harry his letter of acceptance into Hogwarts on his eleventh birthday?
  • What was Bart Simpson’s catchphrase?
  • What other name were three-quarter length capri pants known by?
  • During which war was Wolfenstein 3D set?

  • Ice skater Tonya Harding’s husband organized an attack on which skater at the 1994 US Figure Skating Championship?
  • In The Big Lebowski what is the Dude’s drink of choice?
  • Which toy featured red and blue boxing robots?
  • In The Spice Girls-Spice Up Your Life do you shake it to the left or the right?
  • 1991’s Hook was a retelling of what classic children’s book?

And finally a question concerning one of my favorite songs.

On what album was Radiohead’s hit Creep released?

Answers
Boris Yeltsin, Rubeus Hagrid, “Eat My Shorts”, Pedal Pushers, WW II, Nancy Kerrigan, A White Russian, Rock’em Sock’em Robots, To the Right, Peter Pan, Fav: Pablo Honey

Yesterday was a less than a spectacular day. My better-half was diagnosed with Covid after returning from her safari to the northern wilds of Maine. It effectively required that the cat and I sleep alone for a few days until she recovers. Today started off when the Maine Medical System decided to charge me an out-of-pocket charge of $117.30 to appear at their office to have my blood pressure checked. I said, “Hell No!” and immediately cancelled the appointment. I hate it when people in any organization think of me as just another revenue stream rather than a real patient. Well, I think that’s enough of my bitching and complaining for today. This post is trivia related but contains much more obscure information than my normal facts. Enjoy!
