Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. It's 9:00 p.m. on Christmas Eve and our family have all just opened our one night-before gift. Our youngest was so happily surprised at her gift that she wore herself out and was the first to fall asleep. Whenever I have trouble remembering her name, I just have to think of the name of the cowgirl in "Toy Story 2". What is my youngest daughter's name?
2. It's 9:15 and the second child has fallen asleep for the night. All week, he claimed he was going to stay up all night, but it is not to be tonight. I only have to think of the villain from "Othello" or the parrot from "Aladdin" to remember his name. What is this child's name?
3. Come 9:30, no one else had fallen asleep so it was time to help speed things up. By 9:45, we had finished singing "The 12 Days of Christmas" together and another young one was slumbering. The hint to remember her name is remembering the title character of a Woody Allen movie, who had some "Sisters". What is the name of the third child to fall asleep?
4. The next child held on until 10:00, his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, finally leading to sleep. This child is easy to remember around Christmas time. I just have to recall the first name of the main character played by Jimmy Stewart in "It's a Wonderful Life".
5. I had no luck at 10:15, as two children who were almost asleep starting leaning to the side, bumping their heads and waking themselves up again. 10:30 did bring the next sleeping child. This one is my favorite hint, as it always makes me smile to think of both the movie and college from "Animal House". What is this child's name?
6. 10:45 was a good time, as it brought sleep to the sixth child of the night. This one isn't too happy with his name and always asks me why his first name is the same as that of the main character in "A Christmas Carol". What is this child's name?
7. It's 11:00, and I have started resorting to drastic measures to get everyone asleep by midnight. I started with the threat of getting out my guitar for more Christmas carols, which sends this child, who is named after the main character in the movie "Clerks", to a blissful sleep. What is this child's name?
8. The desperate measure of 11:30 was taking out a board game, which got one child to pretend to be asleep long enough to actually fall asleep. I was in a Dan Aykroyd phase around the time this child was born, so his name ended up matching that of the butler from "Trading Places". What is this child's name?
9. Come 11:45, there was one child left awake - the eldest, who is named Brooklyn. Since there is no sleep till Brooklyn falls asleep, it was lucky for me she just became of legal age, and a warm shot of whiskey taken along with me knocked her out for the night. I use a movie title based off a Betty Smith novel to remember her name. What book helps me remember her name?
10. It didn't take my wife and me long to bring the first load of presents down from the attic and start surrounding the tree with them. By midnight, there was only one special gift, my wife's, to be placed under the tree. Luckily for me, when I went to tell her that I forgot something, she was already sleeping. As I took out the small box containing a very shiny object and put it under the tree, I thought of how peaceful she looked. She looked as peaceful as Liv Tyler's character from the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, who shares her name. What is my wife's name?
