Description

sold quite well and earned good reviews with USA Today, Playboy, and numerous major newspapers. I was interviewed by phone on many radio shows across the nation. Two years later, Morrow published The New College of Trivial Knowledge, which also had good sales. Now thirty-five years later, I have completed The Return of the College Knowledge with completely new factual quizzes on a variety of subjects including: Movies, TV, Music, Art, Sports, Theater, History, Geography, literature, politics. Presidents, Poetry, Philosophy, Economics, biography, science and mathematics, to name but a few. As in the previous two books, each quiz consists of three levels, the B.A., the M.S., and the PhD. reflecting increasing degrees of difficulty. The assignment of each item to a level is not based on definitive criteria. Depending on a reader's life experiences, it's possible that the Ph.D. level is not the hardest or the B.A. the easiest for a particular person. When you know the answer, the question will appear easy.Many of the tests are of a matching type, in which a reader, can reasonably eliminate some possible matches. Here is a confession, have chosen items to test that might be considered common knowledge acquired over a lifetime. And here is the best party, the quizzes are meant to inform, so, even if one does not score well on a particular quiz, the answers will be revealed to them and they have acquired new knowledge of a nature that they may wish to explore the subject further. The quizzes cannot also be used in competitions. At the time of the first two books, I heard from nursing homes, hospital, libraries, detailing how they used the tests to entertain an enlightened people of all ages. The elderly proved to have remarkable memories of things they learned long ago. As you know, memory loss is like peeling back layers of knowledge, with the most recent, usually the first to go.Well, what is meant by "trivia" in this context? As the punster gets satisfaction upon hearing groans as reactions to a pun, revealing a bit of trivia, should be met with surprise. It doesn't do to be called a trivia expert. Once while being interviewed on a Chicago radio station, during the commercial, the host warned me that I was about to be challenged by a boy, claiming he could stump me. Now, anyone can be stumped, so I wasn't concerned until I realized I had embarrassed myself. Back on air, the young man, said, "Hello, Uncle Bob, I bet you can't name all your nieces and nephews, and to help you, I'm Kevin." I was able to come up with two additional correct names, but then I drew a blank and had to admit, I was stumped by a twelve-year-old nephew.By definition, trivia are matters or things that are very unimportant, inconsequential, or nonessential; trifles; trivialities. Nevertheless, trivia facts or details are considered to be amusing rather than serious or useful. The following are a few quotations from fans of trivia.
