About 10 days. England used the Julian calendar and Spain used the Gregorian calendar. Their deaths were ten days apart. On the day Cervantes died it would have been April 13 in England.
My question: (and this one will be sure to please the kiddies :D)
What word begins with ‘f’ and ends with ‘uck’?
oooh oooh, i know that one! FIRETRUCK!!!
In my first post, I meant “occasions” not “equations.” Sorry. I can’t leave without correcting this. Please continue.
Doesn’t Kalingrad, on the Baltic, also not freeze?

One I had in an ‘effective communication’ class:
How many animals of each kind did Moses take onto the ark?
None, they took themselves onto the Ark.
All correct on the movie stuff! Have the Filmgoers Encyclopedia, do you? 
What’s the average size litter you can expect when you mate dogs?
Zero, bitch!
Noah.
:eek: Well! I never! How dare you…oh. Um, right.
:smack:
Yep, that’s the answer! (sort of )
Now you gotta post one. Oh, and you’re right. Noah. :smack: :smack:
I’m so getting booted out of teaching Sunday School for that!
OK, complete the following joke:
Why did the chicken cross the road?
To get her old age pension.
You don’t get it?
Neither did she - …
Well, that one laid an egg! 
What unusual characteristic do the Nile and Willamette Rivers have in common?
The Northern Ireland has been solved-it’s Ireland.
Jerusalem artichokes take their name from the Italian girasole for sunflower-well done rowrrbazzle.
We get our English word noon from a Latin word referring to which time of the day?auRa has it-it’s from the Latin ‘nones’ meaning the 9th hour after sunrise (3pm)
So this one remains
Which Drifters song reached the highest chart position in the UK?(not just trivia!)
And this easy one
What colour is an aeroplane’s black box?
Too obvious. How 'bout this one: how many cows did Noah take on the ark?
Which Drifters song reached the highest chart position in the UK?(not just trivia!)
None of them ever got higher than no 2.
how many cows did Noah take on the ark?
seven cows and seven bulls.
::sigh:: These things are never simple.
If by “black box” you mean the Cockpit Voice Recorder or the Flight Data Recorder: then the answer is “orange”.
The term “black box” used to refer to any avionics remote unit. In my days as an avionics installer for Cessna (some years back), most black boxes were black; the glideslopes were gray; only the ELT was orange.
Speaking of Cessna, here’s a reference to its hometown. In which state are the Wichita Mountains located?
Hey. It’s the best I can do on short notice.
They flow south to north? (The obvious answer, so I’m probably missing the trick.)
So then, does the Nile originate in Upper or Lower Egypt?
Depends on the maker of the bra. Some use true measurements rounded to even numbers (in which case it would be 33 or 34) and some use the add 5 and then go to the next even number.
Weird, eh?
Right – people do tend to fail to note that.
As for your question, neither – two of the main branches of the Nile originate in Ethiopia; the longest branch, more or less in Tanzania, depending on which upper tributary you consider the main river.
D’oh. I phrased it wrong. Let’s try this…was the ancient library of Alexandria in Upper or Lower Egypt?
IMDB.COM, doncha know. 
And to mine (as has been pointed out): it was Noah, not Moses. I was amazed at how many people got tripped on that one. Here’s another from the same class:
