Trivial Tuesday # 10
1. It appears that Grey's Anatomy did what Alias failed to do following the special, after the Super Bowl episode. Nielsen ratings show that it has surpassed Desperate Housewives in viewers this week. I don't think it hurts that it's actually new every week (minus Oscar night). When was Gray's Anatomy first published?
2. Isaac Hayes seems to be creating the most popular buzz at this moment. Yesterday he announced that he was quitting as the voice of Chef on Comedy Central's South Park. For what song did this Rock 'n Roll Hall of Famer win an Oscar?
3. The Federal Register has been published daily (well, every government work day) since March 14, 1936. It's purpose is basically to allow the public to keep up with proposed new rules and changes to existing rules. What was the first rule written?
4. First Earth, then the moon, and now Mars. Google recently launched its interactive map of the Red Planet. How many moons orbit Mars?
5. The opening of the Family Circle Cup on Daniel Island is getting close. I will accept tickets. Of the 15 women who have won the tournament, who has won the most?
6. 4 & 20 B B in a P

3. I'm going to guess that it's that the Federal Register must be published each day? :)

Sadly, I had to think about what you meant by your answer (Ben) for a minute.... I wasn't allowed to answer that one b/c I spent way too much time getting hints on the answer. (and i still don't really get it)... But I proudly came up with my three answers!
