HISTORY, SCIENCE ETC. QUESTION AND ANSWERS.

Pose a Question, Correct Answer, according to Questioner, gets to ask the next Question:

What Walt Disney TV series premiered on December 15, 1954?

[Zochitl]

In 1777 the essays that make up the Federalist sought to explain the Nation about the Constitution.

Who were the men that wrote them?

And what did they call themselves?

 

[P.A.]

Three men wrote The Federalist. Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay. They called themselves Publius after the Roman counsel.
Finally a question I could answer without having to look it up.

[redhand]

I disremembered that one. 

[P.A.]

You probably didn't teach American History for 38 years.

[Zochitl]

Great work teacher! Your turn now P.A.

[P.A.]

What cards was Wild Bill Hickok holding when he was shot and killed? Where was he? And what personal rule had he broken that day?

[redhand]

3 8's and 2 aces, Dead mans hand (afterward), Deadwood, and he sat with his back to a door, which he never did. It was a clear day and birds were singing and everyone was jovial (except for the coward that shot him)

[P.A.]

Very good Red, your turn.

[redhand]

I was afeared of that. I ain't never been no teacher, but I've watched ever western ever made a thousand times and read a whole bunch of historic books. 

( I got a bad habit of watching a western and sit there and criticize. Nope, Wyatt Earp wouldn't of done that....)

Anyway, got to put my questioning cap on. Be back.

Back when I was a young lad there was a country rock band called the Pure Prairie League.

Where do you reckon they got that name? 

[Zochitl]

They named that thar  band after a fictional 19th century temperance union  featured in the 1939 Errol Flynn cowboy movie Dodge City? I reckon!

[redhand]

Awwww, was you watching that this morning too?

Your time, m'lady.
