DB's Picture General Knowledge Quiz

[Guest]

Sorry about that, I was kind of in a hurry last night, and missed that part. You can take away one of my previous points if you like to make up for it, and I'll definitely read stuff a bit better next time.

No mate.. no taking points away... you just won't get the extra one. I know you didn't do it on purpose. Just it deprives someone else of a chance of a point.

[DDgirl]

5. the drums

 

[shadowdame]

4. Detroit

 

[Gypsybyrd]

3. former spouses

(although they claim to be siblings ... I guess the two are not mutually exclusive - they *could* be siblings who married each other)

 

[kendra1980]

6. The Peppermints

 

[LittleLadyLove]

2. red-and-white peppermint candy motif

 

[jack_rabbit]

3. Married (Jack had become close friends with Megan White, a Grosse Pointe native living on the east side. They would marry in 1996 in South Lyon, and Jack would take his wife's surname)

2. Originally they were tossing back and forth the names Bazooka and Soda Powder, so after hearing the other names they had come up with, the White Stripes didn't seem so bad. Meg came up with it, and the story about them getting it from the candy might be true, but they also had some old bricks in front of the house in the garden that said "White" on them, and that might have had something to do with it.

6. Bazooka and Soda Powder

Jack.. I have a couple of things to say... The RULES are above every question. Could you PLEASE read them????

Also.. try not to cut and paste the entire answer.... I got my info from the same site.. unfortunately... (or fortunately.. as you've broken the rules that I have so carefully explained.. also to someone earlier who did the same thing) .. ALL of your answers are wrong.

 

[jack_rabbit]

Sorry
