That's one small step for man TRIVIA QUIZ!

Today is Special Olympics Day, the anniversary of the first Special Olympics, held in Chicago at Soldier Field in 1968. Whoo hoo...go Chicago!

Today is Moon Day, marking man’s first landing on the moon on this date in 1969 when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed their lunar module Eagle. I think in honor of this, I'm going to have some green cheese ;)

On this day in 1993,
in Philadelphia, an animal rights protester, dressed like a cow, was arrested after she hit Ronald McDonald in the face with a pie.

On this day in 1994,
O.J. Simpson offered a $500,000 reward for the capture of his wife’s "real" killer.

And now some trivia:
What invention did humorist Mark Twain patent in 1871?

Good luck :)

Hmm, I have no idea...something having to do with paddlewheel boats?

What didn't Mark Twain do? I really have no idea, but I'm guessing something to do with writing. Maybe some unique pen he fashioned...

Both good guesses! The answer, however, is suspenders. Well, I guess somebody had to invent them ;)
