Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What kind of list might a person put together to decide what things to complete before they died?

Answer: A bucket list

The name of the bucket list is derived from the euphemism for death, where people are said to have "kicked the bucket". That phrase has an uncertain origin itself, but may be traced all the way back to biblical times where the figurative use of 'bucket' is to fight against something (in this case, existence itself).

Other sources trace the origin to around the 14th century with Scandinavian literature relating buckets to 'bending at the knees'. Others cite the French 'buquet' relating to the balance (or lack thereof) of animals being prepared for slaughter.
2. What surname is shared by actor Richard and TV producer LeVar?

Answer: Burton

Richard Burton (1925-1984), while possibly most famous for his two marriages to Elizabeth Taylor, was an accomplished actor in his own right. Welsh by birth, Burton had a career across a large number of stage and film productions, earning him 7 Academy Award nominations. LeVar Burton began his acting career in 1976, appearing in a large number of TV shows and films, before moving into producing and directing in the 1990s.
3. What year saw the death of Pope John Paul II and the launch of video-sharing site YouTube?

Answer: 2005

YouTube, which has changed the way people share videos forever, was founded in February 2005. Pope John Paul II passed away on 2 April 2005, with an estimated 4 million plus people travelling to the Vatican to mourn his passing. Pope Benedict XVI took up the position on 19 April, becoming the 265th pope.
4. What was the first name of the musician with a drug addiction played by Dominic Monaghan in the TV series "LOST"?

5. Who wrote the main theme to long-running animated series "The Simpsons"?

Answer: Danny Elfman

Elfman's prolific list of musical achievements include scores for the films "Batman" and "Edward Scissorhands", as well as several TV shows like "Desperate Housewives". Prior to his TV and film career, Elfman was the lead singer and songwriter for musical group Oingo Boingo, which was active from 1976 to the mid 1990s.
6. What name completes the 1993 film title about an orca? "Free ______"?

7. In chemistry, what type of compound is defined as ionic compounds resulting from the neutralization reaction of an acid and a base?
