Trivia Challenge

Rock & Roll

This is the first in a series of Trivia Challenges in ATPM. The subjects will vary, as will the difficulty level. Personally, I don’t like “multiple-choice” quizzes because, by default, I have to provide a correct answer. Then again, I don’t want to make this too difficult.

If you have comments, ideas, suggestions, or if you dispute an answer, please e-mail me and I will take them under advisement. Please do not send e-mail just to get an answer. Answers to this month’s Trivia Challenge will be found in September’s issue of ATPM - ATPM 3.09.

The Rules

There is only one correct answer for each question. You may get any help needed. (Anyone who knows all of these answers is as sick as I am! ). The answers are stored in a hermetically sealed envelope and guarded by a fierce Lhasa Apso named “Hammerli” that lives in our house.

Last Month’s Answers

Since this is Challenge #1, we have no last month’s answers. Maybe someone can tell me the significance of our dog’s name?
