Trivia Thursday 90'S

It is once again Trivia Thursday. I will post a new set of trivia questions on Thursdays. The rules are simple. Please put your answers in the comments section of the post and I will reveal the answers next week or whenever I feel like it. No Cheating! I trust that all of you will all use the honor system? That means you will not use Google, (or any other internet search engines) or mooch off other peoples answers. Cheating is BAD. If your employer has somehow made it impossible for you to post comments (bastards), you may also email your answers to me at MCDupras@gmail.com.

I love games and Marty got me a really cool one for Christmas this year: The 90's Game. Any of you that were pre-teens, teens or twenty somethings in the nineties, I think you would really like this game. We tried it out with a couple of friends this past weekend and it was a hit. Sadly the boys beat the girls, but they definitely got easier questions than we did. At least that is what I keep telling myself. It appears none of us ever watched the news though because we all sucked at the events/news/history of the 90's. Oops. For Trivia Thursday, I am stealing some of the 90's trivia questions from the game. Good luck.
