awesome, knowledge, quiz -

While this is a little out of scope of our usual posts about nature, camping or Bigfoot, I thought this would be a fun thing to share with our fans. I have a friend who is a professor and every semester he gives his students a General Knowledge Quiz. Questions on the quiz, which are different each semester, range from anything in history, arts, science, math, geography, literature and just about anything else you can imagine. The only caveat to the quiz is this: my friend knows the answers without having to look it up in a book or search...

When normal men make bets, there is usually a clearly defined winner and a clearly defined loser. Usually the bet entails the exchanging of monies from loser to winner, the loser must perform some task for the winner or perhaps a steak dinner was bought for the winner.

The two decided that the loser would wax their chest with the Roman numeral two for the entire summer. The winner? The winner had to shave...
