Skeleton Trivia for Tuesday, 2025-20-28
How you talk to an angel is you pray, right? I feel like that’s pretty well established.
Hiya Skeleton Crew,
Halloween’s almost upon us! I hope ya got your costume all ready to go, plus lotsa candy for the trick or treaters.
What’s your go-to candy? I personally think Reese’s are kinda overrated. It’s not like I DISlike ’em or anythin, I just think they ain’t the end-all-be-all god-tier candy that some folks make ’em out to be.
I do like those ... ah, geez, what’re they called again? I can never remember the name. They’re peanut buttery & chocolately & caramely—I know, that don’t really narrow it down, does it?—but anyway it’s a kinda big long funny name. Like ... “Whichummycallzat”? “Whatchamawhoozit”? Ah, it’ll come to me one of these days.
Answers to Last Time
- I dunno how much Elle Macpherson & Jesse Ventura have in common personality-wise, but at least when it comes to nicknames they’ve both gone by “The Body”.
- The name of the Brazilian steakhouse chain Fogo de Chão is Portuguese for “Ground Fire”
Today’s Trivias
Trivia 1
When I first went to see the winner of the 2008 Tony for Best Musical, for some reason I thought it was gonna be a musical about the cast of what short-lived ’90s musical drama? Honestly, I was a li’l disappointed: I was lookin forward to hearing a Broadway rendition of “How Do You Talk to An Angel”! (That’s OK though, I still enjoyed numbers like “96,000” & “Blackout”, so it’s not like it was a total bust!)
Trivia 2
Didja know “How Do You Talk to An Angel” went to number one on the Billboard charts? It’s true!
There’s not too many teevee themes that have that honor—& most of ’em have the name of the show in the title, like “Miami Vice Theme” & “Theme from S.W.A.T.” My favorite, though, is the theme song that’s got nearly-but-not-quite the same name as what ’70s show about a fella who goes back to his old high school to teach a buncha Sweathogs?
OK then
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee
