LearnedCompanion: LL85 MD1
Well, I missed LearnedCompanion for LL85... oops. Due to a bunch of chaos in my personal life, this project sort of fell by the wayside for me. Alas. Hopefully, I'll be back next season. In the meantime, I may post here sometimes, both in a trivial and non-trivial capacity. Additionally, I've taken to writing the occasional quiz on Alpaca Farm, should that be of interest to readers of this blog.
I, for whatever reason, wrote questions for LL85 MD1, and neglected to post them. In the spirit of this blog (that is, posting my work publicly), here they are now.
1. A peninsula in downtown London formed by a meander in the River Thames (which includes the Poplar and Canary Whart districts) shares what name with a 2018 stop motion film set in Japan?
2. Patsy Cline, Pat Boone, and Lenny Bruce were among the many contestants on Talent Scouts, a long running variety show hosted by which television host and anti-tobacco activist?
3. Ernest Rutherford is known for the somewhat dismissive quotation "All science is either physics or" what philatelic task?
4. Which 2002 Act of Congress required states to administer standardized testing and provide assistance to disadvantaged students in order to receive federal funding?
5. The Edmonton Oilers, New England Whalers, and Quebec Nordiques were among the teams in which ice hockey league which existed from 1971 to 1979 before a partial merger into the NHL?
6. Male kings of Thailand of the Chakri Dynasty each take what four letter name, also the name of a notable figure in Hindu mythology?
