I'd love a plate of smothered, covered, and chunked hash TRIVIA QUIZzes!
Today is Yorktown Day: "America's Real Independence Day," in Yorktown, Virginia, celebrating the victory on this date in 1781 that assured American independence.
Today is National Seafood Bisque Day.
Today is Greasy Spoon Day, a time to remember your favorite place to eat back in the "good old days." Is it still in business? I'd say that, yes, Waffle House is still in business!
On this day in 1976, President Gerald Ford signed a bill posthumously making George Washington a 6-star general, the highest ever U.S. military rank.
On this day in 1987, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 508 points, the most in one day since 1929.
On this day in 1988, Mike Tyson got his boxing license back after pleading with the Nevada Athletic Commission to stop "torturing" him for biting Evander Holyfield's ear during a fight 15 months earlier.
Trivia time! What's the national bird of India? Is it the peacock, the parrot, or the hawk?
Good luck :)

ok, so i'd think peacock at first just because it's colorful and sort of exotic.. so perhaps it's a trick answer and so maybe i should pick parrot. hawk just seems too plain for india.
i'll go with parrot
I think the hawk. And the first time I read this, I thought, wow, Gerald Ford signed a bill after he was dead?? :)
I have to agree with Kim - I had to do a double take to realize that Gerald Ford wasn't signing bills from the grave!
No idea on the birds though, sorry.
I'm going to go with the peacock...which probably means that NBC is the most popular network in India!
It's the peacock, all right! Nice work everybody...that seemed to be everybody's first thought.
Ha, that's great about Gerald Ford! I put these entries together pretty early in the morning, but I could have made that a bit more clear!
