Celebrity Big Brother is Back!!

From the sublime to the ridiculous - the Cuban Revolution to Celebrity Big Brother! That's how a decent quiz works, it is the only time where you will go from talking about a significant world event to a piece of useless trivia within seconds...and you'll enjoy both! (and everything in between!)

I won't watch much of CBB2009, but I'll be interested in the outcome; similarly, I'm not that fussed about the minutiae of the Cuban Revolution, but the outcome is of interest. That's the curse of the quizzer - the surface of any topic is interesting, but too much detail and we can't be bothered with it!

Anyway, on to the trivia: -

  1. Who unsuccessfully tested a flying machine today in 1496?
  2. Who married Jason Allen Alexander today in 2004, the marriage being annulled 2 days later?
  3. What became the 49th State of the USA today in 1959?

Yesterday's Answers: 1. Andrews Sisters; 2. Lord Byron; 3. Peter Sutcliffe (Yorkshire Ripper)
