Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. At the beginning of the movie, Kathleen's boyfriend, Frank, is talking about one state's work force strike. What state was this?

Answer: Virginia

Frank is disgusted at the fact that the "entire work force of the state of Virginia had to have Solitaire removed from their computers because they hadn't done any work in six weeks." He goes on to say to Kathleen that this is the end of western civilization as they know it.

2. How many hours per day does Joe's dog, Brinkley, sleep on his pillow?

Answer: 18

In his first email to Kathleen, Joe starts by telling her about his dog, Brinkley. He reveals to her that Brinkley likes the streets of New York as much as he does, "although he likes to eat bits of pizza and bagel off the sidewalk, and I prefer to buy them." He says that Brinkley is a great catcher who was offered a tryout for the Mets farm team, but chose to stay with Joe so he could spend "eighteen hours a day sleeping on a large green pillow, the size of an inner tube."

Answer: Scotch tape

In Joe's email, he mentions that he would like to send Kathleen a bouquet of newly-sharpened pencils. Kathleen is so delighted by this thought that when she enters her store, she sniffs a Scotch tape dispenser, smiles, and says, "Can't beat that!"

Answer: rubber

The man brings the vase to Joe's dad, and Joe asks, "porcelain?" His father pokes the sides of the vase, and as it wobbles, he sighs and says in reply, "rubber." Joe goes on to tell Kathleen in an email, about Jillian, his dad's girlfriend who ordered the vase, and how she is studying design at "Ceasar's palace."

Answer: Thelma

Kathleen shows Annabelle one book and tells her about Tacey, whose real name is Anastasia. Then she shows her another and says, "this is when Tacey becomes friends with Tibb, whose real name, I'm sorry to tell you, is Thelma." Annabelle then wrinkles her nose in distate, giggles, and tells Kathleen that she wants all of the books.

6. What over-the-counter drug does Patricia use in order to fall asleep right away?

Answer: Ultra-dorm

At Vince's party, Frank confronts Joe Fox about being the destroyer of City Books. He asks him, "how do you sleep at night?" and before Joe can answer, Patricia comes up and says that she uses a great over-the-counter drug: Ultra-dorm. She advises Frank, "don't take the whole thing, just half, and you'll wake up without even the slightest hangover."

7. When Joe and Kathleen are at the grocery store, there is a rude man behind Kathleen in the checkout line. What is his name?

Answer: Henry

While Joe is trying to persuade Rose, the checkout girl, to run Kathleen's credit card through the machine, Joe says. "Rose. That is a great name, Rose. I'm Joe, this is Kathleen..." and then the rude man interrupts him and shouts, "And I'm Henry!" Joe then looks at Henry to say hello and wish him a Happy Holidays.

Answer: violin

The instruments in the song include the violin, which sings with joyful rings, the clarinet, which goes doodily-doodily-doodily-det, and the horn, which sounds so forlorn.

Answer: the number of banana shaped refrigerator magnets the man owns

Joe and Kathleen come up with a lot of zany solutions. Joe believes it could be the number of souvenir shot glasses he has, the number of moles removed, resulting in 152 pockmarks on his face, or the number of people who think he looks like a Clark bar. Kathleen thinks it could be the number of people who think he looks like Clark Gable, the number of insights into her soul, or perhaps his address.

Answer: the zipper man

Joe suggests to Kathleen that her online beau could be the zipper man. The good thing about this, he tells Kathleen, is that she will never have to buy new luggage.
