Inspired by the Eggheads thread...

What would your specialist subject be? I could choose from

Rising Damp and related problems 80's pop music

What do you know a bit about?

World Cups 1990-2002 The Five Nations Championship The Troubles in Northern Ireland British General Elections 1979-2005 Italy 1815-1870 Professional Wrestling 1970-Present day. The European Union The Rugby World Cup 80's Music 90's Music 00's Music The Rocky Films

Incidentally, I've just scored 8 out of 10 on the Sporting Mastermind quiz on the BBC website. So they have recommended I try out for Sporting Mastermind, and thats exactly what I'm going to do!

I'll give you a clue,he's a massive fake fight gadgie,like a girl on roids,if you like.. No too slow....You are rubbish at this Liam..Last clue. His name starts with Th..and ends in...underlips Great name,end of!

I thought you were shit-hot on wrestling,aswell.Tsk..even though it's not real or anything..or shit depending on your outlook.

Of course it was Hogan, he then ad lipped the same line at Wrestlemania 18 against the Rock.

It always makes me chuckle when people call wrestling fake. I think they should go and tell this guy or or this guy, who killed someone in the ring. We all know its pre determined, but its far more real than people think.

To determine something in advance,is'nt it then fake and not real? What else did you think I mean't? I'm not calling into question any behemoth's gymnastics prowess..or leotard even.

No. Its pre determined.

on the regular mastermind they told me the exact same thing--and i only scored 11/20! i think they tell everyone that.

I know heaps of crap/ahm trivia. No specialty just a generalist.

With Shakespeare still rolling around in my head from the other thread, I remember:

The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool

That being said, I am wise at:

Mechanical crap (I can build, fix anything... especially cars and construction) Geology/climate crap Founding Fathers trivia Iraq ( :p ) pointless information
