The Quiz Part 10

Greetings, the year is quickly drawing to a close once more and the month of November is here again. As such, it is time for the annual quiz on my blog. This is the tenth time you have been tested with some questions on pop culture and general knowledge. Joh was crowned the winner last year with Aaron securing second position as the runner up and Mark came in third place. Don’t forget to put your scores in the comments and we will see if there is a shake up in the scoreboard this time around.

In other blog related news, I am currently working on my Christmas entry for the Write Wise challenge as is the tradition of our blogging community. The story is taking shape nicely but it still has quite a bit to go before it can be published. Unlike last year’s story, Hotel Americana, this new project is an original series. It has a pretty unique plot and it is full of new characters which are some of the most bizarre, outlandish as well as controversial ones I have yet created. It is also a hallmark for my Write Wise ‘career’ as it is going to be my 30th entry on the site and I still have many more different ideas for the years to come. Now, on to the quiz and beware of the answers below.

1. Dr Frank N Furter is just a sweet transvestite from transsexual Transylvania but who played this musical villain in the 1975 film adaptation of the Rocky Horror Picture Show?

2. Who said this? - “Snakes. Why'd it have to be snakes?”
