HEY, HEY, HEY,. IT'S FRIDAY NIGHT. TIME FOR TRIVIA. JUNE 16TH, 2023
It’s not time for Trivia just yet, but I am on my way to be with hubby and bringing him some potato soup, Italian grinder and for dessert, brownies and a small piece of chocolate cake with white frosting. This is just in case that the dinner served is not edible (weekends begin in Rehab on Thursdays, is usually
questionable). Hope you have a fun game and get together. I will try to be with you later. Until then, here are some facts for this date:
June 16th is officially National Fudge Day and Fresh Veggies Day.
Did you know that on this day in 1903, Pepsi Cola became an official trademark? It got its name from two of the ingredients used in its recipe, pepsin and kola nuts.
1989
Ghostbusters II was released in 2,410 movie theaters across the US.
1978
Grease, starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, was released in the US.
The musical romantic comedy was an instant hit and quickly became the highest-grossing musical film at the time. The film’s soundtrack was also wildly popular, with the soundtrack album ranking as the second-best album that year in the US.
1963
Cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman in space.
1941
Washington National Airport became the US first federal airport.
1911
IBM was founded as the Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company in Endicott, New York.
1909
Glenn Curtis sold the first airplane in the US for just $5,000.
1903
Henry Ford and 12 investors incorporated the Ford Motor Company in Detroit, Michigan.
1902
The Wizard of Oz was shown at The Chicago Grand Opera House for the first time.(This I did not know –how about you in OZ, Sheba?)
HOW TO PLAY HSN’S TRIVIA: Questions can be found in the Rewards Store within the Arcade, And begin between 8 pm and 8:05 pm EST depending upon your computer clock. There are six questions during the game. The last question is posted between 10:30 pm and 10:35 pm EST. Again, depending upon your computer clock. Each question lasts approximately 30 minutes, so you will need to come up with the correct response within that time frame. If you answer incorrectly, you will see a red “OOPS.” The incorrect response will not count against you unless the time is up. Each correct answer is worth 200 tickets to use in the Rewards Store against the Featured or Current Sweepstakes. So, before you tear your hair out, before you give up, just return to this thread where one or more of us will be able to help. Also, join us in light conversation, ideas or whatever and LET THE FUN BEGIN….
NOTE; Sometimes a little gremlin will pose a question that requires a number. In those instances it may not accept for example 16. It’s the correct response, but you may need to spell it out: sixteen. Other times there may be a two word answer such as: Happy Birthday. Happy Birthday may need to be written as one word: HappyBirthday. There are also times when the answer is a plural even though the question seems to reflect something that isn’t. However, sometimes it is easier to check this thread for the correct response.🍦🍿😃🌴🍧🍧🎂

Thank you for hosting Oodiebom. Goodnight everyone.

It’s the end of another Friday night game of Trivia. I hope you will have a great weekend and celebrate Sunday with the many dads out there. My dad has been gone many years and if he were alive today he would be saying “he got gypped. Reason being it would be not only Father’s Day, but his birthday as well.
Next week, I will not be starting you off. Hubby has an early afternoon doctor’s appointment to go over the tests results I am hoping that everything is OK and what ever he has can be corrected with exercise and meds. I will be here later in the day. Meanwhile, may you have a great week and may all your dreams be pleasant. Good night.

I am wondering if the reason you are experiencing some problems with the answers to Trivia might be because of the high humidity in Florida. Wonder if that is getting into the computers. If the A/C is off for an reason, it could throw a huge curve.

4 all the father’s out there. ✨🌹

Hi bluemonarch and welcome to Trivia. From reading the other posts, I see others are experiencing the same thing. Just keep trying and watch how others have posted the answer and follow the same.

Father’sday

I give up, it won’t take it from me. I copied yours and pasted. Maybe it is an apple device issue.

Oodie,
Glad Mr Oodie is getting better. Must be all that love and care he’s getting from you. Plus, you staying on the nurses/p.t. behinds. Especially when it comes to his medication..-
Mr. Oodie was able to stand on both feet today. The first time in months. Yes, the left knee is still quite swollen and gives him tons of pain. I was the one who was aching. Arrived just as as a migraine hit. Had to turn off the lights and thank goodness I had my pills with me. Must have been because of the low we were experiencing. Still, the humidity is high. You can cut the air with a knife.
-
I’m sure with the smoke in the air doesn’t help. Hope you feel better 💛
-
Mamack, I do not think Florida was affected by the fires in Canada, though our homes in the Northeast were. No, but thanks. I was fine until I hit the outdoors. Had to be the humidity and the low that was heading our way. Not a lot of rain, but some.

BobbiRayCarter worked for the previous question, but Father’sDay did not work for this question.

Hi all. I am now back. Beautiful sunset in Florida. Reds, purples and mauve. I followed it home. Had a bit of rain. Just a few drops with a dark sky in the background. Oh well. Maybe tonight or tomorrow. I’m not holding my breath.
-
Hi Oodiebom, we had rain here. This morning was extremely windy, and it doesn’t rain like it used to a few years ago.
-
Hey xango. You are right about the rain not being like it was a few years ago. We are heading for a larger drought. I am almost positive on this one. Funny, the weather people kept saying that in a couple of years we would be doing a rain dance.
You were fortunate to have rain this morning. We had a very short shower, though the sky was still dark when I left to see hubby. There is a chance for rain tonight and again tomorrow.
-
Good evening good to see ya. ✨🌹Trying to figure out this answer which is very clear

This code is working for me. I first c&p, then typed it in, then tried without the ‘. Still didn’t work
-
Me either. I even rebooted my iPad and still no luck.
-
That isn’t working for me. I entered many times. Then I copied yours. Hmmmm
-
Same here and the same thing happened with the Host question.
-
I even closed all my browser windows. It still will not work.
