Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In a position where a granite stone is to one side, and firm solid location is on the other side.

Answer: Between a rock and a hard place.

Being between a rock and a hard place means that you are in a position that no matter what you do, the outcome will most likely be unfavorable.
2. Refrain from chomping off an amount that exceeds the amount that you are able to masticate.

Answer: Don't bite off more than you can chew.

Don't bite off more than you can chew means that you shouldn't try to do more things than you can really handle at one time.
3. The inability to observe the timberland because of all the tall leaf covered hardwoods.

Answer: Can't see the forest for the trees.

Can't see the forest for the trees means that you're not seeing things as a whole because you're too busy looking at the little details.
4. Refrain from building an elevated rocky peak from a mound created by a small, tunnel making, grub eating subterranean mammal of the family Talpidae.

Answer: Don't make a mountain out of a molehill.

Don't make a mountain out of a molehill means that you should not do or say things to exacerbate a minor problem.
5. Less intelligent than a square cardboard container filled with small granite orbs.

Answer: Dumber than a box of rocks.

Dumber than a box of rocks is simply saying that someone is just plain stupid.
6. Similar to orating to a barricade made of individual rectangular stones mortared together.

Answer: Like talking to a brick wall.

Like talking to a brick wall means that no matter what you try to say to a person, they refuse to listen, even if it is in their best interest.
7. Produce dried alfalfa during cloudless daytime hours.

Answer: Make hay while the sun shines.

Make hay while the sun shines means that when things are going well, keep at it because the good things could suddenly stop.
8. Preserve it until there is precipitation for a 24 hour cycle.

Answer: Save it for a rainy day.

Save it for a rainy day means that if you have an abundance of money or something, don't waste it all because you may need some when things aren't going so well.
9. Refrain from physical movement and enjoy the aroma of the perennial flowering plants of the family Rosaceae.

Answer: Stop and smell the roses.

Stop and smell the roses means that in the day to day rat race that you are trying to win, you forget about the little pleasures in life and you should pause once in a while to enjoy life.
10. All things that ascend, will surely descend.

Answer: What goes up must come down.

What goes up must come down means that no matter how good things are going, at some time a little bad has to happen. Like the Lynn Anderson song "Rose Garden" says: "Along with the sunshine, there got to be a little rain sometimes".
