The Teaser, the Teaser, to Teaserland We wil … Naah; It wasn’t funny the first time … …











Phew … !


You know, I’m thinking this’ll be the last time I do a picture round, for a while!


At least, until I can better use Blogger’s layout options.


The handy thing is, though, is that both NeoOffice, and OpenOffice.org can export to Adobe’s .pdf format; something Microsoft have only recently caught on to doing.


Which I can then turn into the .jpg  answers for yesterday’s picture questions, with Preview.


At any rate, these pic’s are yesterday’s answers; I’m just hoping the layout’s a bit better, Trevor?


Trevor … ?


(Trevor, pass my apologies and regards, to Penny, by the way, I know she’s going to have ideological objections to picture number 2, but I just post ’em!)


But, at any rate, without much ado, here’s today’s questions …


Q1) May 7th, 1718, saw the founding of which jazzy American City?


Q2) Kid Ory’s Original Creole Jazz Band were from that city and the first jazz band to be recorded; in which year of the 1920s?


Q3) While we’re in a musical mood; Anne Dudley was born today, in 1956. Which 80s band did she find fame with; The Art of Noise, The Bellestars, or Bucks Fizz?


Q4) Today is officially Radio Day, commemorating the invention of the first antennæ, by scientist Anton Popov; but in which East European country?


Q5) May 7th, 1986, saw the birth of drummer, Matt Helders; which Sheffield based band is he the drummer for?


Enjoy!

Post a Comment

I love it when people comment. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?

I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.

Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively adult. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.

Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.

If you can also leave you comments on today’s Teaser Video, that would be good.

Thank you.
