Some silly trivia questions
Not as challenging as those we get from Boru but he's been a little slack with them lately...so here are some oddball questions.  Can you answer them?  

1.       What is the name for a group of frogs? 

2.      What do the 100 folds on a Chef’s hat represent? 

3.      Which mammal has no vocal cords?  

4.      What does the word ‘karaoke’ literally mean?  

5.      What is the national animal of Scotland? 

6.      What is it illegal to duel with in Massachusetts? 

7.      What animals in a group make up a flamboyance?  

8.      How many hearts does an octopus have?  

9.      What tax King Henry VII introduce in England in 1535?  

10.  What creature’s testicles explode on mating and cause its death?  

11.  What did Emperor Claudius legalize at banquets?  

12.  In Indonesia what was banned because it ‘stimulated passion’?  

13.  Which animal sleeps only five minutes, four times a day? (no it isn’t Boru)  

14.  How far does the sound of a blue whale’s heartbeat travel?  

15.  What is Scooby Doo’s full name?

RE: Some silly trivia questions
A group of frogs is an army.

Fairly sure each fold in a chef’s hat stands for a mastered recipe.

‘Karaoke’ means empty orchestra.

Scotland’s national animal is the unicorn.

Claudius (on the advice of his physician) legalized farting at banquets.

Scooby-Doo’s full name is ‘Scoobert Doo’.

That’s all I know without googling.

The folds on the chef's hat are actually referring to 100 ways to cook an egg. I think I have a long way to go to reach that number.

All the rest - correct!

Only the lowland haggis is endangered, the highland haggis is far to savage to be safely hunted.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Oh please, a group of frogs is called dinner.
