Thursday trivia - Things you can find at a Wal-Mart Supercenter

Thursday night's game, as indicated, will be trivia on items you might find at a Wal-Mart Super Center.

Now, I need to make clear that we are not talking about any ordinary ol' Wal-Mart, but a Wal-Mart Super Center. There is a difference.

You might want to leave your check book at home if you decide on research.

Do they stock Memory Pills at Wal-mart? For the last few hours I thought tonight was Thusday so I was getting ready to play trivia.

It's not Thursday yet.

Yup. Tomorrow is Thursday.

This is your Thursday night trivia game practice question!

These *animal* companions were not your ordinary *garden* variety. A fad in the seventies, these could only be ordered via phone. Wal-Mart now carries these items - As Seen On TV!

What?

You thought I would provide the answer?

With no hidden post feature?

Nope.

HEY! I think I actually know the answer to this one - maybe it isn't important that I've never seen a Wal-Mart Supercenter after all...

Those things started in the 70's? I thought it was the 80's when those bloomed in our midst.

*ahem*

This is a re-post, cross-post, double-post, etc, etc.

Sorry.

------------------------------------------------------------------



Excuse me?

Someone scheduled a chat at a date and time that I had already reserved?




Let me think for a minute...

paces floor for two seconds

Ok. I'll reschedule. But this is absolutely the last time I will do so. I've been trying to run this game for three weeks now. If y'all want to discuss after the epinions chat, the room will be available and the floor will be open.

:soapbox:

Oh yeah,


BYOB!



Harrumph.

Lynne

PS

If anyone has issues about the cancelation, come discuss them in the thursday night thread.

Now, you've had plenty of time to study, so there should be no problem with this game.

This week's practice question:

This method of storage eclipsed 8mm, and is now living in the shadow of the digital method. You may purchase the machinery used to facilitate this method at Wal-Mart. What is the method?

Don't tease me now, is it really true, there is trivia on the Mart of much Wal this evening?

Shannon ...
(who thinks the regular Wal-Mart is scary enough and could not imagine a super center *shiver*)

Yup. It's finally time.

If by some twist of fate, or national disaster, or if they change the TOS again at eps, and we have to cancel the chat, then I'm ditching the subject.

Think it's jinxed or something.

I'm all a-flutter with excitement. I should make a much better showing this time than I did on Olympics trivia...

I'm hoping there will be far fewer hurdles at the Wal-mart game

I'm sorry y'all, but I had a great time Monday at the Olympic game. I know it was frustrating with mIRC freezing like that, but the comments were quite hilarious.

Last practice question:

Charles de Gaulle once remarked about France, “How can you govern a nation that has 246 varieties of …?” this food product. Found in many varieties, though not 246, you may locate this product in the Dairy section of your local Wal-Mart Super Center.
