The Trivia Hound


1,016. U.K., Nov. 1969

Jim got #1,015!

He looks wholesome in this picture, but his new show is somewhat, well, raunchy. So much so that American audiences won't see it for ten years--and even then it will be bowdlerized.

Jim got #1,009!


This log entry records a monumental event. There should have been reporters present, but 30 years must pass before its import will be fully realized.

We're up to September, and a new kids' show started up called Scooby Doo, Where Are You? (Come on, you didn't think the question would be that easy, did you?) So. Since we haven't had a multiple choice in a while, which of these six is not a Scooby villain?

1,000. Australia, July 1969

Jim is ten in a row!

This is it; the TriviaHound's fabulous 1,000th post! We started waaay back in the Age of Dinosaurs, and now we're on the moon! Only problem is, NASA's satellite receiver is out. (Wouldn't ya know it? They shoulda used digital cable!) Now there's no way to receive the lunar module's broadcast of the historic moonwalk. Can the Aussies help?
