Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In 1976, the rock group Kansas released a song that would propel them to instant fame. What was the name of this song?

Answer: Carry On Wayward Son

On their next album, called "Point Of Know Return" they had an even bigger hit, "Dust in the Wind".

2. What is the highest peak in Utah called?

Answer: King's Peak

It's height? 13,528 feet. Hayden Peak is 22nd at 12,479. Mt. Timpanogos is 45th at 11,750. Lone Peak is 57th at 11,253. Incidentally, Utah has the highest average county peak height (the tallest peak in each county) than any state in the union, including Alaska and Colorado.

3. Cochise was a leader of which tribe of Indians?

Answer: Chiricahua

Cochise Stronghold is located in the Dragoon Mountains of Arizona. It's a rugged place of huge granite boulders, and one can see why he'd make it a hiding place for himself and his people.

4. Vice President Al Gore was known for taking credit for being a part of which invention?

Answer: The Internet

Gore has had a lot of fun poked at him for his statements regarding this matter. In an interview with Wolf Blitzer, Gore said that he "took the initiative in creating the Internet". Many people afterward blasted him for saying he INVENTED the Internet, which was not the case.

5. Can you name this nationally syndicated conservative talk-show host that is also a film critic?

Answer: Michael Medved

Strangely enough, Medved used to be a member of the Democratic Party, back in the 1960s.

6. In which book in the New Testament would you find this statement: "I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase."

Answer: 1 Corinthians

The Apostle Paul wrote these words in his epistle to the church members at Corinth, who had erred in making men more important than God.

7. Who said this? "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

Answer: Benjamin Franklin

Franklin said this in the time leading up to America's Revolutionary War. Interesting comment, especially considering the controversial "Patriot Act" of America today. Many feel that the Patriot Act is doing just what the famous Ben Franklin warned against, taking away some of our liberties for some temporary safety. And many feel the opposite, that as far as "essential" liberties go, none have been taken, and the safety it creates, may just be permanent.

8. How large of an area is Los Angeles County in California?

Answer: 4083 square miles

Los Angeles County remains one of the nation's largest counties with an area some 800 square miles larger than the combined area of the states of Delaware and Rhode Island.

9. Which bird was brought to America in the nineteenth century?

Answer: Starling

The European starling is mostly known as a pest these days, but were considered beautiful birds at the time they were brought to the American continent.

10. The six strings on the normally tuned guitar, are tuned to what pitches, starting from lowest to highest?

Answer: E,A,D,G,B,E

An easy, though nonsensical way to remember the right order, is with this phrase: Every Animal Does Good Bodily Exercise.

11. The word "Anasazi" when translated correctly means what?

Answer: Ancient enemy

The word stems from ancestors of the Navajo/Apache culture who found themselves at odds with those who became known as the Anasazi.

12. Tomatoes are one of the healthiest vegetables a person can eat.

Answer: False

Tomatoes aren't vegetables at all. They're fruit. Sorry if I got you on that one.

13. What is the name of the song recorded by Peter, Paul and Mary, that has a character named "Little Jackie Paper" in it?

Answer: Puff The Magic Dragon

Urban legend has it that this song was about the use of marijuana. I like to think it's about childhood.

Answer: 76

Fried eggs have 16 more calories in them.

15. What's the name of the movie based upon Stephen King's novelette "Cycle of the Werewolf"?

Popular horror author King, has had several of his books made into movies. Some of the better ones are "The Shining" and "Carrie" if you're into that kind of thing.
