Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Person 1:
"You know what I'd do if I... No, it wasn't. You know what I'd do if I owned a hockey team? I'd hire a sumo wrestler. I'd give him a uniform, transportation, 500 bucks a week to sit in the goal, eat a ham sandwich, and enjoy the game. My team would never get scored on."
Person 2:
"Your team would get scored on constantly."
Person 1:
"Maybe, but we'd sell a few tickets."
2. Person 1:
"A little piece of paper? Proclamations have the full force of law. The Emancipation Proclamation, to name just one."
Person 2:
"To name the only one."
Person 1:
"Listen. I - I don't know what's involved with these things. Probably have advisory boards, commissions, the NATO commander's involved, possibly."
3. Person 1:
"Can I tell you what's messed up about James Bond?"
Person 2:
"Nothing."
Person 1:
"Shaken not stirred will get you cold water with a dash of gin and dry vermouth. The reason you stir it with a special spoon is so not to chip the ice. James is ordering a weak martini and being snooty about it."
Person 2:
"Well, I'll reflect on that while watching my digital enhanced picture with theater quality sound."
4. "Me neither. I love sports, I just can't get next to hockey. See, I think Americans like to savour situations. One down, bottom of the ninth, one run game, first and third, left handed batter, right hand reliever, infield at double play depth, here's the pitch. But scoring in hockey seems to come out of nowhere. The play-by-play guy is always shocked. LePetier passes to Huckenchuck who skates past the blue line. Huckenchuck, of course,was traded from Winnipeg for a case of Labatts after sitting out last season with..."Oh my God, he scores!"..."
5. "Not five months ago, in this room I'd said - I joked - that if we win re-election it was going to be on the Vice-President's coattails. The way I'm sure I said it is that it was leaked. How has the electoral math changed since then?"
6. Person 1:
"I should set a ransom. I'll tell you what the radiation levels are, but first I want your electoral votes. Or is that a bad strategy?"
Person 2:
"Pretty bad."
Person 1:
"Okay, no ransom. We'll play this one straight. What about other shipments?"
7. Person 1:
"Hoynes, as... an Independent?"
Person 2:
"Yeah."
Person 1:
"The guy practically has corporate sponsorship. The Tostitos Vice President is going to lead an independent movement?"
8. "If only technology could invent some way to get in touch with you in an emergency. Some sort of telephonic device with a personalized number we could call to let you know that we needed you. Perhaps it would look something like this, Mr. Moto!"
9. "You say what you want, Hoynes is a pragmatist. To do this, he'd be the craziest Vice President since Aaron Burr - and Burr shot a guy. I can't believe we're talking about this."
10. "You guys don't think an alcoholic can be Vice-President? You really think the 20th century didn't see an alcoholic in the West Wing?"
