Looking Trivial
As part of a morale boosting exercise, I've been tasked with putting together a trivia contest. The categories have been determined and question parameters set. Namely that 80% of the questions need to be easy and 20% difficult. The categories are:
1. Animal Names in Movies and TV Shows
2. Dog Breeds
3. NCAA Mascots
4. License Plates
5. AALAS Knowledge
6. ABC's of Animals
7. Houses in TV Shows and Movies
8. Medical Instruments
9. Famous Cats
10. Name that DrinkLuckily I only need to come up with 10 questions per category. Fortunately I only have to do categories 1, 2, 5, 6, 8, and 9. I'd like to say I'm almost done but that would be overstating the facts. Which brings me to the ulterior motive for posting about this contest. I need your input. All my readers are smart and brimming with interesting information. Thus I'm asking you to help me out by providing me with any questions (and answers just in case I'm not smart enough to figure out the correct answer)...Pretty please? My brain has developed a block and I just can't come up with any good questions! Once I'm done with the contest I'm thinking I should let you all try to answer the questions. Do you want to play trivia??

#9 is probably the easiest. Lasagna is the favorite food of what famous cat? What cat shot to fame as the spokescat for Nine Lives cat food? Socks was the pet cat of which President? For a harder one, what was the name of President Lincoln's cat? For a super easy one, what was the name of the cat in the Disney movie Oliver & Company?
Number 1 is pretty easy, too. You can come up with questions for Trigger, Silver, Rin Tin Tin, Lassie, Mr. Ed, Mr. Peabody, Rufus (the naked mole rat on Kim Possible), Dancing Bear, Marcel (the monkey on Friends), Sophie (Col. Potter's horse on M*A*S*H)... that's ten right there!
I included Ron Stoppable's pet in the questions. So very appropriate for our crew!
My anime loving brain immediately went to Ein, the Welsh Corgi from the classic series Cowboy Bebop.
I am not knowledgeable about most anime - I had to look up Cowboy Bebop!
