Lame-Ass Trivia!...

[crptcblade]

All right! Let's all play a game...The rules are few and simple:

1. General knowledge questions. Let's not concentrate on one area.

2. Nothing too hard, cause I'm a dumbass, and I'd like to be able to answer some of them.

3. I ask a question, you answer it. If you get it right, you have to wait for me to confirm that it is correct.
When I confirm, you then get to ask the next question, got it??

Let's give it a try:

Answer for my question ????
Did america anywhere in the timeline had a Woman President ?? Seems I am Stareing at a White Elephant Scenario !!

[crptcblade]

The answer is no. Unless you count Nancy Reagan. BTW - White Elephant, what's that??

I thought a white elephant was something (a gift) you gave to someone because you knew it would be a pain in the arse (annoying) for them (if not immediately, eventually).

[HarryW]

Oh, it's RISC is it? Oops.

Strongest... uhh.... depends how you measure strength I guess... do you mean power, force, impulse or what? Or do you mean strength relative to size? I'd guess something like a flea or a leaf-cutter ant if it was that.
