I don't know if this will work, but post a trivia question and see if someone can correctly answer it. You don't have to answer the question immediately above your post and Google is fine.

What is the most expensive object on earth?

(Here's a hint: It's not the International Space Station, which is the wrong answer you'd find if you Google searched it)

that's not really a good trivia question...but alas i'll take a stab at it and say that new super-skyscraper in Dubai that's gonna be like 2600 feet tall.

Interesting guess, but no. The most expensive object is anti-matter, of which even just one milligram costs $300 billion.

Weird. Anyway, I love trivia. Since they're inducting Cal Ripken Jr. and Tony Gwynn into the MLB HOF today, this one seems relevant:

- Which player holds the record for the highest percentage of votes upon his induction into the MLB Hall of Fame?

Nope. Hank Aaron received votes on 97.8% of the ballots, but there are a few people ahead of him (one of which is this year's Cal Ripken Jr, as a matter of fact).

Ummm...okay...so back to the trivia at hand.

Nobody's answered this yet:
Which player holds the record for the highest percentage of votes upon his induction into the MLB Hall of Fame? (not Hank Aaron)

And here's a new one, I guess you could cheat and look it up...but what's the fun in that... :wtf:
For which movie did Al Pacino win his one and only Oscar?
king of the world
07-29-2007, 05:52 PM

Nope, he never won an Oscar for any of the three Godfathers, or for Scarface.

Oh, I didn't see the edit, yes it's Tom Seaver (roughly 98.8%).
Off the top of my head, I think Nolan Ryan was #2 and Cal Ripken Jr. #3.

That's a little far off by a factor of 10,000. People walk an average of 24,000 miles, which is one 1/2 times around the earth. Cars... who needs them, LOL.

Still nobody has correctly guessed the movie that Al Pacino won his Oscar for (nope, not Carlito's Way or Dog Day Afternoon).

Although, I must admit, I think his greatest performance that I've seen is DDA.
