6. What do the Firemen burn in the 1966 movie "Fahrenheit 451"?

Answer: Books

Based on the novel by Ray Bradbury, "Fahrenheit 451" is set in a future where the government has banned all books. 'Firemen' no longer put out fires, but start them by burning all confiscated books, which burn at a temprature of Fahrenheit 451. One Fireman, named Guy Montag, begins to have doubts.

He begins sneaking books but is caught. He escapes to reside with the 'outsiders,' people who have all memorized at least one book to keep it alive. The movie starred Oskar Werner and Julie Christie.
7. Which of the following, if called by an umpire in Major League Baseball, is the batter automatically out?

Answer: Infield Fly Rule

The INFIELD FLY RULE occurs when there is a fair fly ball (not including a line drive nor an attempted bunt) which can be caught by an infielder with ordinary effort, when first and second, or first, second and third bases are occupied, before two are out.

The Umpire can invoke the rule and the batter is automatically out and the base runners do not have to try to advance. The rule was put into play so that an infielder would not drop a pop up on purpose and try to get a double-play. A fielder's choice is simply the fielder's option of which base runner he wishes to erase. Obstruction occurs when a fielder interferes with a base runner and a balk is an illegal act by the pitcher with runners on base that allows the base runners to advance one base.
8. Which of the following was a 2001 ABC reality show hosted by Anderson Cooper, which featured a double-agent?

Answer: The Mole

"The Mole," based on British and other international versions debuted in 2001. The show (And it's sequel "The Mole 2: The Next Betrayal) featured a group of contestants or players, who had to work together to earn money for the pot, which would be won by the final player.

However, a double-agent or 'Mole' was planted by the producer and worked undercover sabotaging the group's effort to win money for the pot. Each week a quiz determined who would stay and who would go because the person who knew the least about the 'Mole' was eliminated.
9. What method of transportation does Mary Poppins use?

Answer: Umbrella

Julie Andrews won an Oscar for Best Actress as Mary Poppins in the 1964 movie. The film co-starred Dick Van Dyke and David Tomlinson.
10. Well I hope you got all the clues because the end is suddenly here. I just hope this common bond has not been annoying as unexpected company or anniversaries. The common bond of this quiz is things that______?

Answer: Pop up

The common bond are things that pop up such as my quizzes and those ads that you must endure unless you are a gold member. (And even then you are stuck with them when you visit other sites.) The clues include ADVERTISEMENT, mainly pop up ads, (1) One of the most common pop up ads is CLASSMATES (2) JACK-IN-THE BOXES WORK by POPPING UP. (3) Another thing that pops up is PIMPLES (4) TOAST is cooked by popping up in a toaster (Unless you have a toaster like mine, in which the toast remains in the toaster and tries to hide, sometimes sucessfully) (5) I have no intention of reading "War and Peace." I am waiting for the POP UP BOOK (6).

The INFIELD FLY RULE is only in play if the batter hits a POP UP (7). A popular carnival game is called WHACK-A-MOLE (also known as Wack- a-mole or wac a mole) which features a Mole that continously pops up.

The object of the game is to whack the mole has many a times has you can within a certain time period to accumulate a high score (8). Umbrellas POP open, but during a rainstorm at a baseball game, sports announcers often say that "UMBRELLAS pop up.
