Get them all (or a few) right and you could win the boobie prize!
Let's see if you know Jack!

2. What Jack said, "She’s safe, just like I promised. She’s all set to marry Norrington, just like she promised. And you get to die for her, just like you promised. So we’re all men of our word really… except for, of course, Elizabeth, who is in fact, a woman."

Man, I gotta pull it together! I only got J. Ripper right. Sheesh. :P
ReplyDeleteOne is good...sort of. :P
DeleteI got 1, 3, and 5. Jackass? Ha! Guess that's what happens when a penguin decides to go against known penguin nature. Fun post today.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure he's a happy penguin. He doesn't have to live in snow! I'd bray like a donkey to get to live on the sunny seashore!
DeleteOoh, I got 1, 4 and 5. Got most of 3 but didn't know the ditch bit.
ReplyDeleteThat was mean of me to add that...you get credit for knowing the better half!
DeleteLOL...cute post, and that's a Fact Jack A-Z
ReplyDeleteLove it! Reminds me of "Stripes"
DeleteThat's a fact Jack!
I must drink more coffee to focus before reading these. I only got Jack the Ripper right-I'm all jacked up today! lol
ReplyDeleteYou aren't alone...Celeste up there is in the got one right club with you!
DeleteSo, I assume you've played the video game You Don't Know Jack, right? So Much Fun. Sometimes, I boot up one of my super old computers just to play a round or two against the irreverent game show host...
ReplyDeleteNo, I haven't ever played that. But I will be checking it out now!
DeleteHey! I got all but Jackass. I've never even heard of a penguin that brays.
ReplyDeleteYou rock! (I have to admit, I thought all penguins were in icy places, so I can't brag on my smarts!)
DeleteExcellent Jack trivia for J day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Pk!
DeleteTwo, but they are the answers to the best questions so it has to be worth more, hahaha.
ReplyDeleteI like your thinking! (and justification!)
DeleteI'm so excited I think I know a few of these!!!
ReplyDelete1. C.S. Lewis - I mean, who wouldn't want to be "Jack" if one's real name was "Clive."
2. Captain Jack Sparrow of Pirates of the Caribbean fame.
3. Jack Sprat could eat no fat, his wife could eat no lean. Between them, the plate was clean. Not sure I remember the end right.
4. Jack London
5. Jack Ripper.
oh, and now I scrolled up and saw you already gave the answers . . . so I don't know jack about reading the end of blog posts when I'm excited to answer trivia. :)
You rock Tyrean! (answers are only provided to save you the google ;)
DeleteI got four today!
ReplyDeleteYou da man!

ReplyDeleteAll that ology is making your brain cells fire!
DeleteAlways so amusing and clever Elizabeth!
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you Michael!
DeleteHuman Elizabeth!
ReplyDeleteI note you are up to "J". I knew Jack all in regards to your questions. I once chased a Jack Rabbit. I think it was a Jack Rabbit, perhaps I'm just splitting 'hares'.
Happy alphabeting!
Penny the JACK Russell dog and modest internet superstar! :)
Penny, you always crack me up...Gary is lucky to have you!
DeleteHaha! That is the best penguin name I have ever heard. :D
ReplyDeleteIsn't he? Though I'm not sure I'd want him waddling and braying around the house!
