Trivial Tuesday #19
1. With the season coming to an end, TV lineups for the Fall are starting to come out. Thursday nights still seem to be the magical night that all the good series moves to. I might have to buy a new tv card before then. What were the three most popular shows on ABC this past year, helping it to be the only major network to increase ratings?
2. Alien Ant Farm will be releasing their first album in 4 years this summer. What song got them to the #1 spot on the Billboard's airplay-based Modern Rock chart?
3. A forecaster from AccuWeather predicted yesterday that 3 major (winds over 110-cat 3+)hurricanes (and 2 not so bad) would hit the US this year. How many hurricanes were named last season? (Bonus: What is the name of the scale that ranks the category of hurricanes?)
4. Which web portal released a new frontpage design today?
5. Doug Flutie retired from pro (American) football this week. For which college did he play when he won the Heisman trophy in 1984?
Answers for last weeks triva:
1. Eric McCormack (Will Truman), Debra Messing (Grace Adler), Megan Mullally (Karen Walker), Sean Hayes (Jack McFarland)
2. 1968 by The Beatles
3. He is a General in the US Air Force
4. Electronic Entertainment Expo
5. Sacramento Kings

3. 27 named storms. The Saffir-Simpson scale.
That's enough for now, best not to burn out the grey matter before trivia night. :)

2. "Smooth Criminal", and I found this by searching my music collection... found it on "The Best Air Guitar Album in the World...Ever!" Vol. 2 Disc 1. :) In fact, that's the only Alien Ant Farm song I've heard.
