Trivial Pursuit

I knew I had it somewhere:

 

Edeomania - Abnormal interest in genitals!

 

 

Next question please.

[Martin]

Thanks, can't trust the bloody internet for anything.

 

What monument measures 170 feet and two inches in height?

[Big J R]

Nelsons Column in Trafalger square, THOUGH there is some dispute over the full height.

I thought Nelson's Column was just over 200 ft.

 

I think that it is "The Monument" the height being the exact distance from the position of the monument to the spot in Pudding Lane where the fire started.

[American FLEET FAN No1]

No.....The Monument is 202 feet, Nelsons Column is given as anything between 165 feet to over 170 feet.

[Martin]

Ok the answer I had was Nelson's Column. I will freely admit I didn't measure it personally so I can't settle any dispute.

[American FLEET FAN No1]

I think it depends on how high the pigeon droppings are on his head!

 

Oh no.......that means it's JR's turn.....

That answer may well be correct. Unfortunately lacking the imagination to dream up my own questions I resort to...Trivial Pursuit. The answer on the card (for those who give a [***!!***]) was two cents per acre. I should have done my research better.

As for your question Rog I don'y have a clue.

[Roger Rebel]

Try literature

[Student Scum]

You evil man...! By far the hardest question seen on here in ages!

 

The answer is One Ring to rule them all

(It's the "riddle" that Bilbo Baggins' puts to Gollum in The Hobbit)

 

So taking that word as a theme....

 

Who played The Riddler in the old camp 60s Batman series starring Adam West?

 

[chris blanc]

Two people played the Riddler in the TV series. Frank Gorshin and the guy who played Gomez Addams in the original TV show, um John Astin I believe
