01. THE INTRODUCTION:
Remembering 'Ol Cleft-Chin with a Whale of a Quiz to tell you lads, a whale of a Quiz to view
_________________________________________________________________
02. THE SONG: (Vocals by Julie Andrews)
Tra la, it's Kirk -- the lusty lad named Kirk
That naughty boy who's known to go blissfully berserk
He's sure to do a shocking thing or two
His painter or his city cop's bound to blow his top
It's Kirk, it's Kirk -- those clenched teeth are his quirk
He'll explode at things that piss off him -- proper or -im
In every way his anger's on display
We're waiting for his very next blast
Out of his past
Leaving the audience aghast
That lusty lad named Kirk

-- Beyond that, the Quizmaster may not always respond to every post.
-- Not being unfriendly, just utilizing the time more efficiently by keeping the Scoreboard U-T-D (Up-To-Date).
-- Besides, it's just too boring to keep responding 'Yes" to every correct answer -- and too many posts may scare off potential players.
-- The Scoreboard will tell the tale -- but be patient about U-T-Ds because the QM thinks and types slowly.
-- Do you want 'em fast or accurate? (I don't do both)
-- Any comments on Correct Answers (always a player's first and sometimes after several attempts) will be entered ALL IN CAPS!!!
-- When posting traffic is heavy, Scores will be entered in groups of five, and incorrects (NTAs and halfers) will be bundled.
-- Be sure to number and label correctly to save wear and tear on the QM and his beleaguered staff.
-- Only one answer can be correct -- MINE! (It's good to be the Quizmaster)
-- Please follow the EXAMPLE directions to facilitate scoring as well as maintaining player harmony and Quizmaster sanity.
-- IMPORTANT: Do not return to correct a previous post -- this vehicle cannot make U-Turns.
