TRIVIA FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2023
Today is Trivia Friday. DEFG has offered to help us get started with a few questions. We will also continue with the conversation thread. However, the hours for now will be 8 pm-9:30pm. What I will need is your input on your thoughts and if this is the format that you would be happy with. I have checked a few online games and have found that Trivia is there as well. This could be the reasoning behind the Arcade Team saying goodbye to our game night. My thoughts on this is why not give us a reason. It would have been very helpful. Guess I can say “Que Sera Sera, Whatever Will Be, Will Be.”
When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty
Will I be rich
Here’s what she said to me
Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be
When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart, what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows
Day after day
Here’s what my sweetheart said
Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be
Whatever Will Be, Will Be.”
Sung by Doris Day and written by Jay Livingston & Ray Evans

Question #1:
What are geodes? (Answer in 15 mins.)-
A geode is a hollow rock lined with an inside layer of sparkling crystals. On the outside, geodes appear nondescript and are easily overlooked. However, cracking open a geode will display an array of colorful crystals.
Some can be found in Western Kansas.

A+ for Sheba!!👏
I would have accepted “crystal-filled rocks”. -
