One fish, two fish, red fish, TRIVIA QUIZ!

Today is Flag Day in the U.S., marking adoption of the Stars & Stripes on June 14, 1777. At 7:00 p.m., all Americans are invited to "Pause for the Pledge" as those who attend national ceremonies at Fort McHenry National Monument pledge allegiance to the flag.

Today is also National Strawberry Shortcake Day. I'm liking the dessert theme this week!

On this day in 1986, The Mississippi Army National Guard placed a new Goddess of Liberty statue atop the Texas State Capitol building in Austin after the Texas National Guard failed 26 times to position the statue correctly. So I guess that means it's now officially OK to mess with Texas ;)

Here's a little trivia for ya: How many of the top ten best-selling hardcover children’s books of all-time were written by Dr. Seuss?

Good luck :)

I'm going to say 8 - everything except for "Pat the Bunny" and "Goodnight Moon"

Almost! It's actually 4: The Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, Hop on Pop, and One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. He wrote 48 books, selling more than 100 million copies in 20 languages.
