It's here... but I only know the prize. It's the small Ener-G by Lee Williams and Kershaw. Sweet knife!

I'm going to bed now and shall contemplate the contest. Don't expect it to be easy or have anything to do with knives or sports. It will also have nothing to do with me.

I wasn't going to do the 1000th post thing, but I've had a rough time of late and it gets my mind off things and makes me feel good to give a bit. maybe the big guy will send some back. So here we go.......!:D

More info to come TOMORROW! (Friday)
 
Nice OE,
I just finished mine, and kneedeep won it, so he's automatically disqualified from yours!!:D

Hope this contest keeps your mind off of your recent worries and that you're doin' okay.

Cheers,
Jon

Hey, what comes around goes around.
You just take care of yourself, the big guy
will sort everything else out.
 
Eh, I won't enter. Not only would I not win, but I've already won a knife from you, and I feel bad not having given any knives away after entering so many giveaways myself.
 
oe, take care, and the Big Guy will take care of you...and The Family is always here if you need anything...just ask.

IMO there's no better way to deal with life's troubles, OE. Rough patches almost always pass before you know it; but the good deeds you do last a lifetime.

Keep smilin', we're all in this together, ya know.
 
Thanks guys.....!!!!

Ok rules:
1. you must have 50+ posts

2. You CAN play if you've already won a knife from me BUT
"Greed is good" (who said that? what movie?). You
Have to include the right answer.

Ok, Here are the questions:

A. Name the 4 Wiggles, and their respective colors. Name 3 other main characters. Who is the newest Wiggle, and who did he replace?

B. The US Silver Dollar made it's first appearance in what year? (regular issue). What non-american coin circulated before that and influence the creation of the dollar?

C. Name 3 different major classifications of meteorites

D. I'm thinking of a non-USA volcanic island. Which one?

1 TRY PER DAY ONLY. CLOSEST BY MONDAY NOON (PST) WINS!

Think of how much we're all going to learn here ;)
 
I know the first one! Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas). Movie was Wall Street, released 1987. (I have that quote framed and hanging over my desk. The director's cut and some of the early releases had the line as "Greed, for the lack of a better word, is good")

4 Wiggles: Greg Page, yellow, Jeff Fatt, purple, Murray Cook, red, and Anthony Field, blue. Dorothy the Dinosaur, Captain Feathersword, and Henry the Octipus (my favorite!). Sam Moran, newest member, replaced Greg Page in 2006.

Silver dollar first appeared in 1794. Based on Spanish Milled Dollar.

Stony Meteorites, Stony-Iron Meterorites and Iron Meterorites. Also classified as Chondrites, Primitive Achondrites and Achondrites.

Madagascar

This is really cool! Thanks OE!
