Good! Now I don't have to come up with a question and keep an eye on it over the weekend.

Not sure who told you I'd bother keeping an eye on it over the weekend.
OK, my weekends don't look anything like that, but I don't have an emoticon for doing chores and taking care of kids. _________________ " ... the mistakes that we male and female mortals make when we have our own way might fairly raise some wonder that we are so fond of it. " George Eliot |

Well, if Rusty is punting, I'll go with the obvious answer: 1968. That was actually my first instinct, but then I thought Jimmy Page was still with the Yardbirds in 1968. |

1968 it is. The Yardbirds fell apart in 1968 so technically you were right about that too. _________________ " ... the mistakes that we male and female mortals make when we have our own way might fairly raise some wonder that we are so fond of it. " George Eliot |

Just in case nobody noticed there is a spammer on board. I wouldn't recommend clicking any links. |

Jimmy Page originally formed the new band under the name The New Yardbirds to fulfill a couple of contract obligated tour dates. But being a Page/Zeppelin fan, I deserved to lose if I didn't pull that one off of the top of my head. |

According to legend, Charlemagne had 12 paladins, or peers. The best known of these are Roland and his best friend Oliver. Roland's other close friend, Bishop Turpin, is also sometimes listed as a paladin, but not usually. The list of the remaining 9 or 10 paladins varies from one tale to another.
Name one of Charlemagne's other paladins. Wait 24 hours before searching the internet.
Hint: Poul Anderson (1961) and Andre Norton (1951) wrote fantasy novels about two of these obscure paladins, which some of you might have in your libraries. |

Thanks. I deleted a couple, but was not notified about most of them and did not have time to go through each category manually. _________________ The Code is the Law. |

We are back in Tampa on our turnaround day. On Friday we were in Grand Cayman Island. We next cruise to Cozumel and then to the BAy of Honduras. You know that lake we always walk around looking for Monty,s hideout? Well, there is a river from the Bay leading to this lake and they built a fortress on the river to protect against pirates from sailing into this lake! |

I'm guessing. Was El Cid one of them? |

Thanks for deleting all of that spam. I'm not sure he has been removed from the community yet or not since it still says [ The newest registered user is myy] which is the spammer. |
