See if there is interest for this.

1. Each day I will post 10 questions, at random times of the day.
2. Each Quiz runs exactly 24 hours.
3. The first person that has all 10 questions right, wins. Or if no one has all questions right, the best one wins.
4. You can only post answers ONCE for the same quiz.

Alright, I guess it's time to end this madness...

1. Illinois Fighting Illini, Stanford Cardinal, Alabama Crimson Tide, Army Minutemen, Harvard Crimson, etc.
2. Utah Jazz, Miami Heat, Orlando Magic, Minnesota Wild, Colorado Avalanche, Chicago White Sox, Boston Red Sox... there may be others as well
3. 42 (According to Douglas Adams)
4. Serges, Logan Creed, Biggie528, Kagome_70
5. OMEGA Detective Agency
6. December 27th according to the most recent post by Ben on the subject
7. Chicago
8. Michael Jackson (If you don't believe me, find the url of your sleuth avatar and change the number to 0... see who comes up)
9. Who else but Lord of Llamas!!
10. Any numeric answer will do here; it's a trick question. As long as you made up a statistic, you were fine :)

a) According to my bio, I am president of the Crunchpatty-is-a-smooth-mutha-shut-your-mouth-I'm-just-talking-about-Crunch-I-can-dig-it Fan Club.
b) The correct answer was $850,000 in small unmarked non-sequential bills, but I guess I'll let anything go :)

Biggie got 9 out of 12, but Jroepel got the all-important 42 answer correct, so I'm giving the nod to him. Sorry Biggie, but you also had inside info on the AVL questions, so sit back and enjoy the roepel-fest :)

1. I like Serges answer coz it looks so darn accurate, and I was gonna say round 9000 metres. But now I want to say 8998.
2. Mt Everest
3. Edmund Hilary & Tenzing? Norgay. (though I don't mind the theory that Mallory got their first.)
4. 1953
5. Well at night time yes, coz it's damn cold! I suppose a full body sweat momentarily exposed to the air might cool you off for a few seconds before you got way too crispy.
6. Every man for himself.
7. Dehydration
8. Well you cold, your numb, I suppose that makes sense. I think your skin changing colour is an early sign also.
9. :s I have no clues with blues, jazz or any other discordant form of music where I can't hum the tune.
10. lol UNRA
