    Useless Trivia

    I am a sucker for useless trivia. When I was a kid I used to read the encyclopedia for fun. I also used to buy Trivial Persuit games just so I could read the cards. I want to pick your brains. Pile it on me. I want your useless trivia.

    First question for you all.... This is going to win you some money someday on a radio contest or something. What is MacGyver`s first name? I`m sure you can find it if you hit the search engines, but think about it first before you do. His real first name will surprise you, and yet seem logical at the same time.

    Kinda. The wife is at a scrapbook convention or something. The boy is taking a nap and I`m getting some quality online time. Thursdays and Fridays are my days off and since it is raining, there isn`t much else to do.

    Isaac Newton`s dog`s name was "Diamond".


    Henry Ford invented BBQ charcoal - hence the name "KingsFORD".
