Well, my teammates and I will be going to the College Bowl Regional
Tournament, but if you go to Montgomery, AL, this year (like last),
you'll be pretty lonely.  The tournament is in Hattiesburg, MS, the
last weekend in February, 1993.

I was curious how 'Merry Christmas and Happy New Year' are written in
other languages.  Aside from some of the easier ones (Spanish, French, German)
to find, can anyone provide some input to this?  Phonic versions for 
symbols that cannot be typed are welcome also.

Actually, 'Call Me' was from 1980, so I assume it wouldn't be valid for

Well since there's still a few days left until my deadline, I thought I'd
repost the quiz and cross-post it with rec.arts.tv
Here's how it works: I give you the nickname of a tv character, you give 
me their real name. NOT the actor's name, the name of the character.
One point per name will be given, so if a first and last m\name is 
needed then it's worth two points.
In the event that only one person answers a particular question, they get 
an extra point. E-mail by Dec. 20

1. The Fonz (Happy Days)

2. "Punky" Brewster (Punky Brewster)

3. "Potsie" Weber (Happy Days)

4. "Buck" Rogers (Buck Rogers)

5. "Bones" McCoy (Star Trek)

6. "Scotty" (Star Trek)

7. Ace (Dr. Who) (Only first name needed)

8. The Chief (Get Smart) (Only first name needed)

9. "Wojo" (Barney Miller)

10. "Coach" (Cheers)

11. "Beaver" Cleaver (Leave it to Beaver)

12. "Boner" (Growing Pains)

13. "Bull" Shannon (Night Court)

14. "J.J." Evans (Good Times)

Plus... an extra three points for anyone who can tell me  the last name 
of Scooby Doo's Shaggy.

Have Fun

The Rules:       
i)   Mail, do not post, the numbered) artist / song names that you
	recognize, do not return the lyrics to us again.

ii)  As usual, the lyrics are alphabetized by artist.

iii) Song title and artist are worth 1 point each divided amongst the 
	entrants who have answered correctly.  Bonus questions are 
	worth 2 points for each question answered correctly.

iv)  Send entries, comments, and suggestions to jamesm@cpsc.ucalgary.ca

v)   Deadline for submissions is Monday, June 10, 1991.

vi)  The Collective is aware that some of their songs are somewhat 
	obscure, but are too out of touch to know how bad it really 
	is, so constructive comments and suggestions are encouraged.

**************************************************************************
we are a bit confused about the artists for #1 and #6 (for which we
can _almost_ take "traditional") so if you think you know the song,
but it couldn't be because the artist is alphabetized wrong for that,
you're probably right, so don't worry about it.  8)
**************************************************************************

	tacoma, philadelphia, atlanta, LA
1) 

	jennifer, alison, philipa, sue, deborah, annabel, too
2) 

	and i want, and i need, and i love
3) 

	tulsa, austin, oklahoma city, seattle, san francisco
4) 

	I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
5) 

	dasher and dancer and prancer and vixen,
	comet and cupid and donner and blitzen
6) 

	gretta garbo, vanessa redgrave, kiki dee
7) 

	It starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes and aeroplanes
8) 

	The bat, the cat, dolphin and dog, koala bear and hog
9) 

10)	Fa, la, la, la, la.  La, la, la, la.

Bonus Questions:

A) What do the above songs have in common? [hint: i love la / randy
   neumann really belonged on this quiz, but we couldn't pin down any 
   lyrics . . .  8(]  

B) Which lyric is different, which lyric does not belong?

C) Name the other 2 reindeer in the song for #6 (a point for each).

When Alan Hale Jr. died some years ago Bob Denver was interviewed. Denver spoke
with affection of Hale but did mention a running debate between the two as to
whether "Gilligan" was his character's first or last name. (I believe Denver
regarded it as a given name, not a family or nick-name with Hale holding to
the opposite stance). Everyone agreed that it was the character's only name.

...except perhaps for "little buddy"... ;-)
