1. What is the largest breed of dog by standard?
2. Who was the winner of American Idol in Season 2?
3. How many planets are there?
4. When and where was "Fat Man," the second atomic bomb, dropped?
5. How did the America decide to come up with the 21-gun Salute?

answers.. (those were tough questions..)

1- His name was James C Calhoun, He was v/p under John Quincy Adams and then Andrew Jackson. Back in those days, whoever got the most votes from the electrial college was President, whoever got the second most became v/p. That is why in your early administrations the President and his v/p usually didn't get along at all.

2 - History tells us that one of the men who helped row Washington across the Delaware, named Oliver Cromwell, was a black soldier in the patriot army.

3 - His name was George Armstrong Custer, both he and his two time winning congressional medal of honor brother died at Little Big Horn in 1876

4 - Alaxender Bell. Bet you thought he only invented the telephone (so did I..)

5 - She will be 89 in 2015 when she holds this honor. Let's all hope she makes it..

OKay, I'm sure everyone knew all those answers and if not, hopefully you found them interesting.
