Baby Boomer Questions WARNING TOUGH!

In My Humble Opinion
1

I am not old enough to be a baby boomer but I started to take a test to see how much knowledge I had. Before I clicked on the “anwsers” my computer crashed & I lost the cite I was on so now I have no way of knowing the anwsers. Unless…somebody here knows:D

Here are the questions I coulnd’t anwser. See if you know them.

1)World leader that pounded his shoe on the table at the United Nations

2)Running Bear’s Indian maiden

3)Stage name for Perry Mason’s opponent who NEVER won a case

4)Graduated 6th grade so he could cipher figures for his uncle

5)Said "Don’t trust anyone over 30

6)Raised in the woods so he knew every tree / Kilt him ((7 words)

7)I’ve got smog in my noggin, ever since (4 words)

8)You’ll wonder where the yellow went (7 words)

9)Good night, Chet (3 words)

#2 is Little White Dove
–and they had a love big as the sky, till they drowned themselves

#6 is “a ba’ar, when he was only three”
All together now!

“Davey, Davey Crockett …”

IANAB, btw.

#4 Jethro Bodine, nephew of Jed Clampett.
#5 Abbie Hoffman, professional Yippie
#8 When you brush your teeth with Pepsodent.

Does anyone know what this was about? Pounding shoe on table? Is this like a really important event one should know about?

3)Stage name for Perry Mason’s opponent who NEVER won a case

Hamilton Berger

7)I’ve got smog in my noggin, ever since (4 words)

you made the scene (I think). I know it’s from the novelty song “Kookie, Kookie (Lend Me Your Comb).” “Oh baby, you’re the ginchiest!”

6

I am having a blonde moment. So is the anwser Oh baby, you’re the ginchiest? What the heck does that mean anyway?

7

The Case of Nikita’s Shoe

written by his granddaughter.

I thought I had these right but my coworker says I am wrong.
Stage name for the Rifleman
(I thought it was Luke ??)

Stage name for the Rifleman’s son

Real name of actor who played the Rifleman
(I thought it was Chuck Connely)

Ginchy was Kookie’s word for attractive/sexy/hot.The only person in the universe who ever used it,as far as I’m aware.

One of the numerous catch phrases in tv/movies that never caught on in the US vocabulary.

To see a prime example of these phoney/pseudo hip manufactured words in action see an early 50s movie called Scene Of the Crime starring Van Johnson.It gets regular play on TMC.I always wince when hearing some of that dialogue.Raymond Chandler it wasn’t.

Teen movies of the later 50s also had numerous examples of it.

For the shoe banging incident google “we will bury you”

Stage name for the Rifleman: Lucas McCain

Stage name for the Rifleman’s son: Mark McCain

Real name of actor who played the Rifleman: Chuck Conners

11

The rifleman was Chuck Connors.Don’t know their series names,never watched it.

Bonus BB points,Connors was once under contract to the cubs as a firstbaseman,as was Peter Marshall, Hollywood squares host/ brother of actress Joanne Dru.As a baseball contractee he went by his real name of Peter LaCock.

Small wonder for the stage name,tho I guess it would have played well in Porno :slight_smile:

12

Peter Marshall played baseball? Surely you jest! He certainly doesn’t look the part of a baseball player!

Here are some BONUS POINTS

(I got these right so I will share them with you)

1)Claimed to build strong bodies 12 ways

2)Said “I can’t get no satisfaction.”

3)Miner who stood “six foot six and weighed 245”
4)You’re all invited back next week to this locality / to get a (5 words)

5)Reason the Purple People Eater wouldn’t harm the songwriter: "I wouldn’t eat you cause (3 words)

13

OOps,on preview I see I goofed.It was Marshall’s ** son ** with the baseball contract,and he didn’t change his name to play ball.

14

Charles Atlas
Mick Jagger
Big John (at the bottom of this mine lies a big ** dumb ** man-my version)
heapin’helpin’of our hospitality

15

Ught oh. One of us is wrong Titan I have a different anwser then you for #1. I think it is Wonder Bread

How will we know who is right?

16

It’s Wonder Bread.

I should do another one.

What made you able to “run faster, jump higher”?

What should you get “when you gotta have a treat, and it’s gotta be sweet, and it’s gotta be a lot, and you only got a dime”?

  1. Wonder Bread
  2. Rolling Stones (Mick Jagger)
  3. Big Bad John
  4. “Heapin’ helpin’ of our hospitality”
  5. “You’re too tough.”
19

“Fat kids, skinny kids…” (5 words)

Always wondered the connection between these three groups of children. Maybe by being the 3rd, the 1st can become the 2nd? After getting banged-up as a 3rd, the 2nd join the 1st?

Real head-scratcher.

These questions are hard for baby boomers? You gotta be joking; I knew quite a few of them, and I’m only 27. Hell, I knew the Davy Crockett theme song, and I’ve never even seen one episode of the show.
